    OFFSET question?

    I have a few sets of wheels for sell. I am now wondering what offset is needed for the E30 (non M) the wheels are 16x7 and 35mm off. Will they work or will spacers be needed. I have used the search and came up with all sorts of dirrerent info. Let me know I would like ot see some of these to members but want to make sure they fit. Center bor is 57.1

    From what I've read, and I think I've read all the posts with offset questions, as a general rule, 7" wheel factory offset I believe is 25mm, so ~10mm spacers.

      I have the same size rims, same offset. Mine rub a little at full lock on the plastic inside the front part of the wheel well. So I have 8mm spacers. Wasnt ever too much but I would nic it occasionally. So i put on the spacers. Now that I have larger sways, the inside of the tire rubs them on cornering, agh! So maybe 10 mm would solve all the issues :) Even without spacers though, the rubbing is only at full lock.

        E30 Gruppie, so you are saying the SSR you have are 35mm off and just rub when corner, is there any tire rub against the strut or elsewhere.
