    Mounted rim to check fitment today

    Front needs at least 3mm spacers to clear strut and might go with
    tires 205/45. The rear fits nicely, going 215/45 for a wider look.

          What type of tires you looking at? I would HIGHLY recommend dunlop star specs, cheap and amazing all around performance. Unfortunately, the closest they have to the sizing you want are 205/50 and 225/50...

            I was thinking Yokohoma Sdrive. You think going 50* is kinda too big?

              225/50 16 is too big for e30. 225/45 16 max.

                  Looks nice! Do they come in silver or charcoal center color?

                    Thanks! wheels come in 3 styles, black, gold and chrome, if your referring to the center caps? those came in chrome that matches lip.

                        If your looking for more of a "stanced" look go for 205/45 with 15mm spacers.

                            What's the offset? I'm running 205/45/16 on 16x8 xxr's 002. Perfectly flush just gotta roll the rear. 50 is too much tire for 16's IMO. But ya. That's what I run look at my car if you like it

                              offset is +26. I was thinking 225 in the rear n 205 in the front.....many are telling me to just go 205s all around but i like the wider look...im so indecisive.
