    How to fit 10" wheels on the rear?

    Im going the euro look:
    front -9x18 ET 13 - 215/35-18
    Rear -10x18 ET 13 - 255/30-18

    How do I make these fit on an E30, just rolling and pulling the guards?

    whoa, i swore i thought you were trying to put 10" (in diameter) wheels on the e30.... might want to fix your title just a bit

    oh, and my guess is that you're going to have to run spacers some big ones.

      Wow, those are really large wheels, front AND rear. Not just width, but that in conjunction with the 18" diameter. There is a member on this forum who has done something very similar. Major fender flare modifications.

                  ROTFLMAO! I tried to buy those wheels - I think they were something like 5K-6K + shipping.

                      I absolutley LOVE streched tires. So awsome looking, although many others dont think so. Do it. Your title is decieving though. I thought you where going to put 10" diameter wheels on lol.

                        Maybe you should move down under, i can get them fore 3k with rubber.

                        but those pics from felgenman.de is where i got the idea. i emsil him and he told me that no spacers are required just fender rolling and pulling. thats why I need confirmation. got my fender roller tool on order....
                        thanks for the input

                          4 real?

                          Man - I didn't even run rubber as part of the cost. Maybe he thought I was from Canada.

                          What wonder what he is running on that car for suspension.

                            Have you looked into what pulling means? A regular fender roll only rolls the inner lip of the fender flat with that flatter outside part.

                            Pulling it means rounding out the whole flat arch into a curved bowl. Alot of times the metal can get messed up because its litterally getting pulled apart.

                            I remember someone once said that for a regular roll job, you have to work the fender for maybe 10 minutes tops. To pull it, it took him an additional 7-8 hours PER SIDE.

                            I love the look, but I'm hoping to go with flares/widebody and some extreme rims.
