Hello all,
I am building my first air'd project. Its a C5 A6 Avant and I am waiting for my complete bagyard setup to arrive (hopfully next week). So far I gathered most of the management and picked up 3 boxes full of goods today.


Goods


and complete control arm 12 piece kit to keep things tight.


Now planning the layout, and here is where I have first problem. I want to keep my cargo space stealth but with the size of the tank I got and the way that spacesaver pan is made on my car it will be hard to do. as you can see

Re: (Grig85)

what are you going to do to make the different bolt pattern fit with a higher offset than with no adapter?
Re: (sum1namedjames)

swap centers with high offset 5x114.3 and redrill or wobble bolt them
Re: (Grig85)

Sick sick sick sick sick sick. I know I am going to like these so much better than the Bentleys. Stoked! Any plans as far as refinishing goes?

if you're happy with the way they sit now, i vote for a redrill if you have the room. with these bwm fitment rs, you have to be careful of the center bore because they're usually pretty big, like in the low to mid-70's. so they're might not be enough room to safely move the bolt holes in a few mm.
ps - i hate you for getting these wheels. i've been wanting a set.

original BMW centers are gonna be replaced with JDM ones, there is no way I can make them fit with original centers.
