Have been driving it around town. Not sure why everyone looks at me?
added 20” spacers in the back, no more rubbing but too much grip

Too much grip in the back only? Sways adjustable?

Stance looks great. You can always sell the motor and go build bigger if too much grip is your complaint.

I may just stiffen the Ohlins in the back. I like when she is tail happy.

ah! Engine has RSR cams, has been ported and polished, MAF and tuned so it is not "slow". I just could notice the increase of grip with the spacers.
I am undecided on what to do with the stock 1992 motor, maybe just do a top end but I found the stock 3.6 to be soporiferous.

As Jon said you can replace the barrels. Most BBS wheels are 3pc design and they can be split. Plenty of the tuning community does it. I've seen some videos on how it's done and it's surprisingly simple.

It is a combination of centers, outer and inner barrels to get the look and offset for E87/88s. Find someone with the stance you like and have them give you the center F/R part numbers. Then figure out what to do with the inner and outers as it relates to your center part numbers. BBS USA was great at helping me out.

Its a good time to rebuild these wheels and seal with silicone or high temp gasket sealer. I used high temp gasket sealer and my wheels has not leaked in 5+ years. You do need to go back and check torque on the wheel bolts just to make sure few hundred miles in after rebuild.
