Pics and suggestion request

Ok. So I will ask one last question about fitment to the e30 guys i swear hahaha.

Here it goes....

I am currently looking at picking these wheels up off a local guy. The specs on the wheels are as follows

CCW LM 20′s 16×9 + 6 16×9.5 + 0 fully polished with gold arp hardware
3.5 lip front 4inch lip in rear
205 40 f and 215 40 r



What would I have to do to make these work on my end. I am sure that i would have to adjust camber and already assumed that. But will these fit or would i also be looking at spacers and all that.

And also do you guys have any photos is e30s with this set up? Or suggestions on if they will fit

16x9 et6 in the front should be just about perfect. Might need a small spacer to clear the strut, maybe. 16x9.5 et0 sounds mighty aggressive... I would think some fender lovin' might be needed.

Do able or would that need a lot of fender love

I can't say for sure, try asking Mystikal.

However, these are 9.5's that are nearing et0







I wanna say those are 205/45's though.

Depends on the wheel backspace. My 17x9's in the front would never have fit a tyre under there with the stock struts. With the coilovers they cleared by like 3mm.

Yeah they look a little taller then what i am going for. But those wheels are square right and not staggered? And going to send mr mystikal a pm shortly. Thanks for all the help.

I have bc coils so I am not as much worried about that end of the wheel as i am about the fender.

Afaik I think those are the 8.5/9.5 staggered setup

Thanks man. That makes me feel better about the offset on the rear as the dude from ccw was saying that it would not work... but i dont think that he was thinking of the extremes that i was looking for.

Turns out that, with adapters, the rears on that red car are 16x9.5 et13. So, et0 is gonna be quite aggressive haha.

[2l2ltq]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Does that car have any spaces at all?

Well, by nature, rear salad shooters are 16x9.5 et38 and he has 25mm adapters in the rear. Therefore he has an effective offset of 13mm. With a hard roll and pull you might be able to pull it off.

[2l2ltq]

Well that sucks... i guess unless someone else gives me some hope or a good example of what they have that is close I am going to scratch this idea.

So do I, there is no way mine would have fit in the front without a spacer.



I also doubt they will fit on the rear without rubbing on the guard. My wheels are 20mm + offset, with an 8mm spacer in mine, it rubs under large compression with a 215/45R17 on it. So yours are going to be even further out towards the guards if you have a 0mm offset.

I think with a heavy roll and some thin stretched tires, 205/40 maybe, it may work. You could always re-lip them to be 16x9 square you would be golden. You can buy lips from ccw directly. Try it, if it doesn't work sell the wheels and live and learn.

My rear wheels are 16x9 et11 205/45/16 , at 9.5 et0 your wheels would poke ~17mm more.
Try willtheyfit.com and rimtuck.com enter in wheel specs and see what you think

It can work!

16x10.5 et2 on BC coils





A little too crazy for me but you could do it.
