Yeah, but at ride height, it should be a tucked in a little bit. I'll get the fenders pulled about an inch regardless

Should be fairly close. It is an optional fitment, but it is a mustang fitment non the less

Just saw a Prius sporting RPF1s. And it looked awesome on that too

The rears on that e36 look muuuch too convex. Do not like. Agreed. The stepped lip and reverse spokes, etc. kill it. I think it would look better with a set of ARC-8's instead: http://www.apexraceparts.com/ARC-8-17x9-Wheel_p_17.html

Yeah, but at ride height, it should be a tucked in a little bit. I'll get the fenders pulled about an inch regardless Should be a great looking setup How much camber do you normally run up front? Will that be an issue, clearance wise with the strut tube, once everything gets mounted?
Yeah, there is plenty of space for the strut actually, more than last wheel (Cobra R R58). I usually run 2.5 negative, with 7.5 caster. I'm thinking about going up to 3.5 negative pretty soon, to get more front end bite.

If I hadn't tracked down the OE, '95 M-edition BBS rims, I would have gone with these. They are easily the lightest wide rim that's affordable for many different makes of cars. I happen to hate the way the Miata fitment rims look on the Miata, but they do look good on many different cars. Are you going to rent a fender roller and pull them out that way? I've done the baseball bat method and, uh, yeah...

I'll leave that to professionals. Rather do that, than do it myself, screw it up, and then have to pay for body work. I've seen how easy it is to screw up fenders using baseball / steel pipe method.

Dude, what with your DIY hood vent experience, seems like fender rolling would be right up your alley.

Yeah, seems like it would be, only if I screw up a 50 dollar hood, I'm not going to be as pissed off, if I were to screw up a factory fender, and having to replace it and paint it.

I hate the "while I'm there..." process of modifying. That got me into to much debt back in the days with Corrado and Trans Am.
