Any thoughts on 195/75/14 on 14" weaves or bottle caps fitting without issue? Overall diameter is 26.1".

7.5x17 et22 on mine

Was there any rolling/mod work needed to make this set-up work?
Are there wheel-well differences between touring and coupe?

They are sold. Keep looking :(

Shame. They would have looked really good [emoji53]

Yup the bore is 57.1. Not much selection in 16 but they are available

Yeah, I like the sizing. Just inquiring to see if they are still available. I need to check to make sure the center bore isn't too small.. we need a 57.1 or bigger correct?

Should work. That's the setup I'm planning to run wheel and tire size wize

How does a 16x7.5 et35 wheel with a 215/45 tire sound? Thinking of some BBS RY055's

Yeah I guess it doesn't seem to matter. My car has studs, but I have a feeling they'd run straight even with stock bolts as long as you're careful snugging them up.

You're right, these are the et35- they seem to fit really well and leave some room for a slightly bigger tire. This particular set is not hubcentric and didn't come with a set of rings, but they seem to run true so far.

I've run non-hubcentric wheels for years without issue. The trick is to use the right pattern and tighten them up before you put it down on the ground. Also, having a stud conversion helps.

Thought I'd contribute. Stock basketweaves in black. Kumho ecsta 4x 205/55-15

Love the way the 001's look on e30's. They sell them in 20 and 35 offset so I'd assume you have the 35 unless there is poke.

Also those rally tires look sick!

ET30 is a good offset for an ix wheel at 8" width. Looks great!

I feel like all of these questions about ix wheels at ET 25 or less can be answered simply - no. ;)

I just picked these up for a pretty good deal locally since I think we'll do a couple autocrosses with this car this summer and I don't own any summer tires. ESM-001 16x8 et30 (?).

They have some pretty tired dunlops on them so I'm currently considering either the Dunlop star spec or toyo r1r in 225/45-16 to run in STX. Any input on either of those? Other options are slim in that size.





Then there's the ratty rally tire setup- stock weaves with 205/65-15 Lassa gravels.




Sorry, edited for massive pictures...
