    Where did you get your 16x7.5 rotas? I cant find them anywhere. Everyone has 16x7 only

    good answer. yeah, give them a try with a moderate ride height and nonwide rubber.

    all else fails, sell them to a e21 owner

    Your car would just look stupid. Undersizing doesn't help me much...i'm tucking tire regardless. But you might use it to cheat. Still, if your springs are soft it doesn't matter it they are too short to reach the fenders while static.

    why not find fucking wheels that fit and save yourself a hassle? e30-thinking < *

    If you want them sticking out of the fenders a couple inches you can run whatever you want. Undersizing tires doesn't stretch them.

    True of Miata wheels, etc. Like the SSRs B3nder was posting about which use hubcentric centering ring, obviously can have that switched out. But most of those wheels would still need spacers.
    I honestly have never seen a 4x100 wheel on the market with less than a 57mm centerbore, except for Miata wheels. My rims and almost all Rotas are 67mm, thats why I said that number.

    15x7 ET12 will stick out the fender but with stretched tires you could run it.

    no. not really. maybe if you want to drive a stock height e30 and look like a mexican.

    i've heard ronal et15's working, and my et17, but you're just getting redic.

    What I meant was aftermarket Honda rims have huge centerbores, like 67mm, to fit all sorts of cars.

    Some hondas have larger bores such as the preludes. they have a different bolt pattern...but most aftermarket wheels have a dual 4x100 and 4x112.5 or whatever that larger size is. His car needed no spacers for them, and they fit snugly on his hub. I put them on my e30 with some 10mm spacers and the 18" wheels fit perfectly.
