    fitting 225/35/16 et32

    Hey guys kind of a fitment noob. Not new to low e30s I've just always run very easy to fit wheels 14x7s et 25 and such. But that all changes today. I'm picking up a square set of 8.5in salad shooters (original I know). They come with 225/35/16 that have "80%" tread left, so I want to use them if I can. I've done some research and its appears that the 8.5in wide salad shooters are et+32. I'm on Ground control adjustables up front no camber plates and German Engineering adjustables in the rear. Car is a 89 325i cabrio.

    My question is what size adapter do I need to run these with these tires? Also will I need fender work? (I'm fairly sure I will just not sure what kind: rolling, pulling, etc.)

    Thanks.

      Honestly I built it just to have a place to sit and listen to Hotline Bling on repeat.

        I have no idea kid felt like he was just starting out with modding cars. He also thought he was going to be able to mount these on his R32 haha, the tires were camber wore to hell and he initially told me they had 80% tread life left. Basically he was a complete noob and I wasted my time.

        Moral of the story: if it sounds too good to be true it usually is.
