make sure you use threadlocker for the bolt, i refinish many 2 piece wheel before.

just use those glue for the bolt, torque it down even and nice have it balance again once you are done
Blue loctite is what BBS uses. That's what I will reassemble with.

WRs2k I love your car and your wheel setup. Like you I was determined to get a nice wide wheel in the back of my M Coupe so I sat down and figured out what offset I needed to fit a 10.5 in the rear and have it flush with my fenders for the perfect look. here is a pic of the rear wheel and I still have about 1-1.5 inches left, I should have gone 11.5 hahaha.


SpeedxRacer: I noticed that my new wheels make me a bit slower, but I imagine with only 150 some odd ft/lb of torque ( Im assuming you are not FI) it was terribly noticeable. It's nice to have an inline 6
