Here are my 17x10s. Et is somewhere between -3 to +3. I can't remember. I'm sure I could make them fit with a pull and 235s.

Why? Because he can, he likes the way it looks. Do I think it's over the top? Yes but, I don't give a fuck. It's his car, not yours.

Easy killer just stating an opinion....like you. I guess I'm just form and function oriented over looks.

[2l2ltq]

Well I do personally think that that is a little over the top when it comes to aggressive offsets and all that. But, in the end. It is a trend and i think that car looks like a bad case of sexy time.

The thing is unless you do a swap which maybe his is or isnt and i know my 325is isnt there is no point in 295 to 315 to accommodate a rim like that. You wont use that kinda traction on the street NEVER!

But ccw smoothies make me smile. And this thread has given me hope to the wheels that i am trying to pick up.

^^^I see your point. In my case I am doing a swap, I won't be running 295-315 but I will be running 275 most likely. I do really like to wheels, super clean.

[2l2ltq]

Yeah, to each their own ya know. Until I man up and spend the money on a swap ill be part of the "stanced" crew haha.

Good luck with that. There is not really any selection for e30 fitment. I went with a 255 federal which runs as wide as some 275s and they are pretty tall. I think a 245/40 is realistically the best option for our cars.

I like to color outside the lines. Not like it hasn't been done before....but when the tires don't fit....make the fenders bigger.....:D I have looked at those federals you showed me, I will probably own a set for street tires!

[einstein57]

Way ahead of you ombre. I guess if i had something more reasonable like 17x10 et 25 wheels it would not be hard at all to squeeze them under my fenders. What can i say, i'm a sucker for big lips.
