    I'm gonna get 522's in 16x7 with the 25 offset and see what happens. I know I'll have to roll a little but hopefully not too much.

      you won't. even with a 205/45/16 you'll be fine.
      if i keep the 16x7+25's up front. i'll end up putting a 10mm spacer to make it more flush.

                Check out car-part.com, looks like there are are couple of BH g-series boxes at some recyclers up there.

                      which dollar coin? any pics of that one? kinda curious. you might as well put a bp in there, you already did the hard part of removing the z5...

                            How much bigger are the pistons? I think on Facebook you said something about getting oversized pistons, but by how much?

                                Sounds good. And are those the largest you can get?
