1989 BMW 325i Wheel Fitment

I have a 1989 BMW 325i with CATuned coil overs. The rims I have are 16x8 with +25 offset. I know I have to at least run a 3mm spacer or they just skim the brake caliper. I have 3, 5, and 10mm spacers to use. My question is what size of tire would work with this setup? I have all new plastic in the front of the wheel well for the brake ducting to make it all nice and clean in the front so I would not prefer to trim it. I have test fitted the rims with all the different spacers and I am quite concerned that I have made a bad rim choice but yet I see lots of others out there who have made this work. I have also heard opinions that the 16x8 with a +15 offset is the perfect rim size for the E30, hence the reason I have 10mm spacers as well. I am not going for stretched tires on this build, I want to have a more performance tire on there with a tread wear of about 200, 100 would be too soft for daily driving but also don't want rubber bands. I don't mind rolling the fenders so long as it is just the inside lip as I want to keep the body lines stock, but finding someone in Edmonton to roll them with a fender roller might be tough. Any thoughts on this would be helpful.


Thank you.

This weekend I have fitted 215/45/17 tires on 17x8.5 et25 with a 5mm spacer on the front with
H&R sport springs.
The rear is 215/45/17 tires on 17x8.5 et25 with a 3mm spacer and H&R sport springs.

Not rolled fender.

Hope this info help some of you.

is mystikal still doing this?

I'm close to pulling the trigger on some Gotti 1001's but they're overseas and overpriced. I'd like to be reassured these will fit before I pull the trigger.

Specs:
Gotti 1001
16x8.5
5x120
et 21

Thoughts:
4x100->5x120 adapters 18f, 20r

Car:
88 e30
Rolled, not pulled
Rx7 calipers in the front

Thank you!

Looking at getting TRM C1s in 15x8 with 20mm offset

Trying to fit 245/40/15s all the way around, is this possible?

I have a 1988 325i with a Ford 347 stroker that I'm trying to keep from spinning everywhere.

Two questions. Both dealing with a '91 vert with bav auto springs and bilsteins.

Will RWD 14inch weaves with 20mm spacers all around be overkill?

Also what would be an appropriate tire for 16x8.5 with +15 without rolling fenders?

Z4 16x7 225/50 rims offset 47 with 318ti rear trailing arms? Do i need spacers still or will it fit? Front what spacers mm? Probably going to do 4x5 front spacers didn't decide that yet. But will be going 5 lug in the front eventually. early model btw.

[parkerbink]

These are 16x7 ET25, tires are 195 45 16. Are they sitting back or ok?
