Home made Steel wheels are those D.O.T. approved? Legal?
There are plenty of light weight steel wheels from Bart and Aero Wheel. but they are not D.O.T. approved or street Legal. Leave you liable for anything that could happen if you get in an accident.
well they arent legal, but we have shop here which makes them as we ask.. with experience of 20 years, he know how to do it.. i have also made couple set myself, they aint that hard, if you have good welding machine and rotating machine

well i think it doesnt matter how wide wheel you use as long it doesnt hit your fender... you should just think look/driveable ratio when choosing rims.. i prefer look on my car... and if i put 10 wide to rear, it will come out a lot, so i need to get stiff springs..
Here is 8,5x17 front with et13 and 10 wide rear et 15, tyres are 235/45
In this pic car looks awesome, my day dream pre-model e30 with deep dish wheels and little raise :p. Show more pics

I choose 1, Not matter looks. I have 4-door ix facelift model
My car is now under construction, havent done the 5 lug pattern yet.
If you want to get best driveability, you should use 14-15", wide something aorund 7" and et 25-40. you should keep the centerline of tyre the same as original..

Ok, On my first ix the tyres I guess/can remeber 205/40-17, wheels were 7x17. I remember because it was the suspension of a terrible run at streets. I'm thinking of something like 215/40 or 215/45 if you just fit rotate
How did they feel driven??

Ill say that offset matters more than raisin profile from 40 to 45... as close to FWD wheel as possible.. it was better when 205/55-15, 7x15 et13
Will these wheels fit. What kind of tyres fit those wheels+can roll under car:D
-16 "x 8.0" 4x100/ET20
Fit in any way, no matter whether those come out or touch the fender.
As long as the fit to turn. I am grateful for the answer
No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.
