Wheel guru, I need your help!
I found some BBS RS wheels, they are 4 lug 114.3mm +17 offset, can they be filled and re=drilled, and will they work with that offset?


Thank you so much

If im running 16" wheels with -42 offset what size spacers are needed so that there is no rubbing on the front wheels.

Thanks!

Yes and yes!

It would help if we knew the width but you're going to want a 15mm to 20mm spacer for good fitment. The 15mm would be on the safer side for outer tire clearance. Not sure what size tire you plan to run.

I am assume you mean +42?

[schtozo]

^^ of course he should have meant that! -42 plus spacers on an e30 is serious business...

16x9 et 10, would 205/45/16 tires work?

Yes, fender roll needed in the rear.

[Mystikal]

This isn't super urgent but, with fenders flared 2 inches, what would your recommended width/ offset and tire size be? I'd be running 15's and want a slightly undersized tire, on the widest wheel possible. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

15x10 -3 with a 225/45.

[Mystikal]

Will I run into any issues with an 87 325is H&R race, bilstein sports, Euroweaves with 205/50/15 tires?

No issues.

I've been half heartedly searching to find this but haven't come across it yet. Is there a chart or anything that tells what offsets fit e30's without spacers, and then which ones fit with spacers and the size spacer needed-and also a chart for which cars have the same centerbore as e30's?
Looking to see if 2004 Sentra's have the same centerbore as e30's (I believe sentra lugs are 4X114, but the wheels I'm looking at are drilled for both 4X114 and 4x100 and came off a 2004 Sentra) The wheels are 15X7 et35 ASA 5 spoke with a center cap with 195/60R15 Blizzaks.
Thanks

I am the chart, sadly. Those wheels should bolt up to an E30 fine, but front strut clearance will be minimal. B15 Sentra is 66mm center bore and E30 is 57mm so you'll need rings. Related note here's my GF's Spec-V:

Xxr 16x8 et20
Bc coils
Stock lug bolts


What will I need?

If the XXR's require tuner bolts, those. Otherwise, 205/50/16 should just clear without fender work. 225/45/16 with a basic rear roll.

[Mystikal]

Stiffer springs?? What do you suggest??

Linear spring-rate coilovers (GC, BC, JOM, etc etc). Something above 500lb/in in the rear.

[Mystikal]

What is the widest tire i could realistically run on an ARC-8 17x8 on the rear- Fender lips are rolled, and spacers aren't out of the question.

245/35/17 is the easy one, but there's no good tires.

245/40 is about the maximum without serious fender pulling.

[Mystikal]

I have 205 50 16 DWS tires and I was thinking of pickcking up a staggerd set of ESM 002
s. My convertible is sitting on Bilstein Sport with H&R sport springs. How streched will the rears be? Is this worth doing? Can't afford new tires as I just bought these. Will they fit, will I have to roll the fenders. Anyone have pictures of this setup?

Thanks

Tires are too large to work with 16x9s, unfortunately. Maybe with absolute fender hacking but otherwise...nope. Sorry.

Thank you so much

You'll have to look at the back pad of the wheels to see if redrilling is feasible. Alternatively if the centerbore isn't too large you could stretch the existing holes...basically, in the end you need to get pics to the shop doing the redrill first.

Also, need to know wheel diameter and width.

I'll assume +42, but yeah, still need the width.
