    195/45R15 on the fronts and 215/45R15 on the rears...Toyo T1R's. I have a set reserved as soon as they show up in N/A. They will be very slighty stretched and tuck nicly. I come from the VW sceen, so I really love the deep dish, slamed to teh ground look............. My old Jetta. Teh E30 will be hawter when done... 8)

        I was thinking more along the lines of steelies with a huge lip, but I guess it's all the same.

              I like your FWD E30 but you should have kept the wonderful factory Recaro's unless that is a 90 year which they were not included.

              I would like to build another VW but can't bring myself to go back to FWD. Nice wheels thou and how much was it to get the work done?

                How much do those bitches weigh? And you think 195 on an 8" rim and 215 on a 9" isn't stretched? lol.

                Umm, well anyways.... cool stock economy rims from a VW that didn't even come with alloys...?

                  If it was a GLi it would have came with alloys in 14x6 and if it was a GLi 16v it would have had BBS 15x6.5 RA's depending on year.

                    Stretched steelies are superhot. Run whitewalls on them too. You must post these when they are on the car as well!

                      Teh Jetta was an 87 with a 16V swap, coils the works.. I built the car up my self over the course of a year. The reason I chose VW wheels to be widdened was because BMW doesnt make a 15" steelies and vw has the same center bore, thus the wheels fit teh way they should. I wanted to go with a Euro ganstar look when I started this project car, something different that no one else has done yet. 8)

                            You are saying the euro look is something nobody has ever done before?
