    I want to know what tire you are running. Trying to get definitive answers as to what fits and what doesn't.

      AVS ES 100 with no roll, but my car is lighter.
      The BMW 318 is back. With a vengeance.

            225/50 ES100's with un rolled fenders and zero rubbing, however i doubt i could squeeze my pinky finger between the front tires and the strut.

              Everyone here has the same Ronals correct as awhile back there were two differant offsets and now there is just the ET25 units correct?

                ET25 is all they have now.

                  Dammit. ES100's run only 9.2" wide on a 7.5" rim. All of the better choices run wider than that. :x

                      Toyo T1-S is out of the question on Ronal's? I'm picking up a set in the spring as well as a drop, probably GC with Koni's. Will 225 Toyo's fit?

                        At least one person has tried and failed. :(

                          Damn! Where does it rub? Is it a matter of fender rolling or does it hit the strut?

                          So what does fit? Would 215/45R15 Toyo's Fit? I'm leaning towards the T1-S's because a friends miata has them, night and day between the ES100's he had.

                            Someone locally is running 225/50/15 T1-S's on Ronals. His fenders are not rolled and there is only a bit of rubbing in the front at full lock.
