Getting the correct size D90s..  Help..

Is this right?

7x16 with 55mm offset
8x16 with 52mm offset

With adapters would these fit?

Those are good sizes..as far as the adapters you need 5X100 to 5X120's.. thickness depends on how much poke you want.  I think usually the minimum thickness you can get is 20mm

My wheels are being picked up today..  They are on the delivery truck right now out for drop off.  We shipped them from a commercail address (ebay seller's) to a commercial address (his friends machine shop here in the Springs which is Kineo inc.) for cheaper shipping.

Going to get Nate's adapters tonight after work then I am getting tires put on tomorrow.  WOOT

I don't think this post clearly relayed his excitement!  We got the wheels done around 11:00 last night.  We got them painted, got the adapters on and lowered the Jetta (sorry Kordd and Rico, can't bust on the 4WD look now).  Even my neighbors were over watching what we were up to.  Then we had to take it for a test drive to a well lit area so he could drool over them some more!  He's a happy boy today!

Perfect!  It took us going to a 2nd store to get all the lug nuts/bolts or whatever they are called (ha ha) before he got what he needed, but they went on perfectly!

Yeah those fit well.  I am glad to got to try your adapters on before ordering mine.  I kinda like the poke the 30mm adapters give.  I need some shorter front lug nuts though.  The backs come out about flush but I am going to go return the fronts for some that are a little shorter.

Now I just need center caps.

I need to give a big thank you to my Barbie..  She helped sand the wheels to prep for paint, wash them, move things with me, and just made it possible to get it done in the ammount of time it all happened in.  They would not be on the car now if not for her help and Nate's letting me use his spacers.

You're welcome, I know how much you wanted them done for the show.
