    Wheels that fit IE's 6 piston BBK? IM stuck

    I was looking to get wheels for a little project I have. I'm doing a 91 325i coupe 24v swap, with an S52 OBDi I conversion. I want to install the IE BBK but I'm stuck cause most wheels don't fit the front. Anyone have any idea on what I could use with this setup. I really wanted the ESM 16x7.5 all around, but I know I'm going to need a spacer in the front... I really don't wanna use spacers but I love the look of those wheels.

    Any help will do...

    thanks a lot.

    OZ Futura 16x9 et14 fits without spacer on the 6 piston 295mm kit, but the clearance to the bolts holding the rims together are very small.

      What caliper do they use?
      Its the 6 piston Dynalite right? They're pretty narrow.
      If you looked up 'what fits under a Massive race kit', you would be safe.

      Try these as a 16x7...

      BRAND........... fits with a XX spacer

      BBS RG-F 20mm spacer
      OZ Allegrita HLT 15mm spacer
      Advan RG2 15mm spacer
      Volk TE37 15mm spacer
      Volk RE30 15mm spacer
      Enkei PF01 15mm spacer

        290 kit fit under a set of 16x7 Alpinas - NO SPACER (if you know those wheels you know the back of the spokes slope inward and can be a tight fit for bbk's)....





        IE does use the Dynalite caliper. Krazm3 - If you come by IE with whatever wheel you have I'm sure a mock-up could be done.

          The calipers are Dynapro, not Dynalite.
