Umm... ... nice pics!!

[bunteh]

Haha you DO post alot....:p



I post every once in awhile, but do honesly forget about them for most of if not all of the week. THen I check here and see this thread has been updated and get all excited again.


Speaking of which, I think I have decided to go with 205/40/17 tires on these. I really don't want to touch the fenders on the E30 (resprayed car, don't know how it'll take fender massaging). Did a few quick mearurements and it looks like with the 205/40/17 I will be in perfect shape at et25.

Hey, I have that size tire at the moment and would totally recommend against it - they look way too small on the car, and first gear winds out in like a second.
obviously do what you like, but just thought id give you a heads up :P

Thanks for the heads up man....I think I did decide on the 215/40/17 already though. Will order within the next few days I think. I have RS-2's on the weaves now and like them. Now that they are on closeout on TireRack, I can snag some up for not too much.

Nobody should ever mount a 205 tire on to these rims at any time. It's extremely undersized and would be the definition of euro-stretched. It has zero benefits, but a lot of down sides.

I've provided plenty of tire fitment advice here. And customers have posted photos of 215's fitting without the need for any work.

A 205 setup would be a down grade even if you are on them now on a smaller wheel. These wheels were ment for rubber. Use 215 at the very minimum.

[Hodge]

Yeah, now that I see that they will fit with rubber without touching the fenders, I will feed rubber :p.

Meat > stretch :)

[Bishop]

Feed the beast.

Picking up wheels in the morning! got 215/40's mounted up! Will put them on the E30 tomorrow afternooon!

[PaintPro21]

post pics asap! I've only seen photos of 3 cars with these wheels. what's the deal guys! ;)

[Bishop]

I can post more pics lol.... There's a meet Saturday, maybe I'll have more pics

[Hodge]

OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD!

These wheels look incredible!

I don't have any pics tonight, but I will tomorrow.

HyperBlack was definitely the right choice for my Zinno E30.

I have a rubbing issue up front when I turn about one turn either way, the tire contacts the fender. Going to raise the car up a bit tomorrow to get rid of that. Other than that, it seems like it clears everywhere else! My car is so damn low.

215/40/17 looks awesome.
