Biggest. Wheel Spacer. Ever.

///Matt · 08-24-2006, 12:30 PM

So there's this car at my dealer right now... CRAZY peice of CRAP. it's a Z4 with a full Z8 body conversion on it! RIDICULOUS! anyway, the Z8 body is SOOOO much wider than the Z4... this tard put spacers on his wheels to fit the body.

So generally people use spacers between 1-20mm.. these are TWO HUNDRED MM spacers. that's 200. TWO ZERO ZERO... TARD!!!

KL2DC · 08-24-2006, 12:45 PM

200mm spacers?!

Who makes those? I hope they have the proper length wheel bolts

Oh and also...

///Matt · 08-24-2006, 01:02 PM

Yeah, well KL... why don't you buy me a digital camera? no? ok, then don't bitch! =)

I'm trying to buy a digital SLR, but hey, if I'm gonna spend 600-1500 bucks, it'll probably be on the car, not a camera.

Camera phone! I care not of quality! I want to make fun of this!

ksfrogman · 08-24-2006, 01:33 PM

200 mm = 20 cm = 7.9 inches

Dude.... 1 me + 0 cameras = 0 pics.

///Matt · 08-24-2006, 03:05 PM

picture this.... the wheels sit flush with the fenders/quarters, although the wheel has a bit of negative camber (top of wheel leans toward car).... then you look into the spokes of the wheel, and there it is... an 8 INCH wheel spacer. YEAH!

Matt

thekewl1 · 08-24-2006, 03:11 PM

is that even safe? 8 inches!!!!

who makes spacers that big or wuz it customized?

///Matt · 08-24-2006, 03:47 PM

NOT safe, don't know about the who/how.

Matt

///Matt · 08-24-2006, 03:49 PM

Here. this is the best I can do for now. the curve at the bottiom is the area between spokes, then spacer, then brake rotor at the top.

longtran · 08-24-2006, 03:55 PM

damn thats a big spacer. why didnt he get custom wheels made. that wheel would have a fat lip fo sho. do you have pictures of the car itself???

///Matt · 08-24-2006, 04:16 PM

check back in 20 minutes

///Matt · 08-24-2006, 04:28 PM

Here is the rear and angle shot... notice the Z4 wheels... The rear lights are majorly fake.. (the REAL Z8 tail lights are $$$$$$$$$$$$) the exhaust is a tip on the left and a fake on the right.

I didn't get a good shot of the interior, but it's BONE STOCK Z4 2.5.

More pics in a minute

///Matt · 08-24-2006, 04:29 PM

Also notice the fake headlights, which I can't even say are Halogen, cuz I don't know!

Matt

obLu · 08-24-2006, 04:38 PM

That says a whole lot of, 'I spent a bunch of money on this piece of crap'. With body shop rates, and the amount of bondo work that must've taken, the dude could've probably just bought a real Z8 ... or at least something a lot hotter than a Z4 2.5 made to look like a franken-Z8.

///Matt · 08-24-2006, 04:39 PM

Here it is... the ULTIMATE DRIVING MACHINE.... Salvage Title Z4, FULLY BUILT with a Z8 fiberglass body, barely held on... rolling on stock rims with 200mm spacers... THROWING you into your seat with a FACE MELTING TWO POINT FIVE LITER INLINE 6, baby! YEAH! faster than a real Z8, right?

Matt

ward · 08-24-2006, 05:15 PM

I can't belive anyone has the nerve to bring that within 5 miles of a dealership

thekewl1 · 08-24-2006, 05:21 PM

It must be the coveted and very limited K-Mart Edition, BMW Z8, complete with optional 200mm spacers, bone-jarring 2.5 I6 and functionally challenged dual tip exhaust.

Only 2 made. I think Sasquach owns the other one.

Why didn't I see that before?

longtran · 08-24-2006, 05:35 PM

ths must be a KAS edition.

I guess they didn't feel like doing their signature square exhausts.
