              ttt?

              looking again as the dunlops are wearing down. Need to move to 17's.

              So far have found a few 17x8" options (Motegi Track Lite) and one 17x8.5" used option (Volk TE-37), but am hopeful some others may have found something.

              Thanks - Jon

                Team Dynamics will custom drill you a 17 x 8 or 17 x 9, I got a quote on the 9" awhile back, $247 shipped a wheel for 17 x 9 st 20, 4x100 57.1 hub.

                Still have to run a spacer, but 20 is the lowest they go for a 9.

                  Would you be able to run a 255 on the 9" or have to run a 245 or 235? Without flaring.

                  @GotCone-- Also, if 17x8 could work, as I know you would like 8.5, check the link in my sig.

                    have been lurking in your threads on BF.. a consideration indeed. I have to admit that I'm not sure on the style on an E30... but Is a great option. Another reason is I want > 20 offset so I can space it out as needed to get perfect track allowing me to pull them more inward at the rear of the car.

                      Unless you were running monster truck ride height, it would take A LOT of fender arranging to get 17 x 9 255/40s on the car, the front would have to be around ET 10 to clear the strut. So the outside of the wheel would be another inch out compared to a 17 x 8 ET 25.
