will it fit? 225/65/17

quick question here.. will 225/65/17 tyres clear the rear arches on my facelift E30? if so what sort of offset of wheel would i be looking at to get them to clear the arches?

have found some 225/65/17 tarmac rally tyres so im thinking of picking up a pair of them for the rear of my E30 for drag racing and whatever.. if they will fit..

not even a little bit. Of course, you could always raise the car 3 or 4 inches to make those fit...

a 225/40 17 may fit depending on the offset of your rims

yea that side wall is crazy tall, are these off a small SUV?

you look lowered, this will never work. I tried to fit 225 55 15's on a low off set 8inch wheel and barely fit them in. That is way smaller then what you are considering

no chance in hell unless you do some ridiculous body/fender modifications... or lift your e30.

thats what i was afraid of lol

dont want to jack it up just know where some used rally tyres are but the only sizes are 17 or 18 inch. probably from a subaru or evo or something..
