FYI, gearbox express can remove, refit & rebuild/repair your box. They've done mine & a few others in the past. I'd rather that than adding a second party.

Yeah I've just decided that I am going to get Gearbox Express to do everything. I now have a Quaife LSD ready to go in, so I'll probably get my car towed to Gearbox Express next week.

Schmick. That way they'll have total ownership/responsibility over the repair/rebuild.

Thanks to Dylan, I will soon have a set of 'Work Equip Anhelos' rims!  Originally I wanted the normal Work Equips, but the Anhelos ones have grown on me to the point where I like them even more. Dimensions are: 18x8 +34 18x9 +34 The fronts will definitely need a spacer, possibly a fairly big one, but that's OK. At the rear I was hoping to get 9.5 or 10 width rims, but 9 is still fine, and the offset will be almost perfect for flushness at the rear. I can't wait to receive the wheels!

purple5ive ahh the work equalent to the SSR proffesors or the cousin to the mesiters Yeah. They look kinda like a combination of Meisters, Professors and normal Work Equips. Given that those are all great rims for an SW20, it's a damn good combo! purple5ive you might be ok in the front with a 5mm spacer depending on what tyres you have/run Does anyone know what the maximum spacer thickness is for the stock wheel studs? EDIT: I guess it depends on the holes in the rims too, but a ballpark guess would help.

5mm spacer doesnt need extended wheel studs, but its always good to have the extended studs for safety if you can find them.

Yeah I think they do. I'll have to wait and see how big the spacer needs to be, then I'll decide whether to get the longer ARP studs or get a spacer with its own studs.

Oh yes. I'll def keep my word on doing a proper photoshoot of your car when the rims are on & the gearbox/diff is operational again.
