How do I make style 42s from an e39 with 235/45/17 fit on my 86 325e ?
5x120 bolt pattern. 17x8 et 20
I either drill and fill or swap in 5lug right? But once I do that, how do I get the wheels to fit? Gotta have big tires for my planned 400hp
and if I dont do the 5 lug, whats the best tire size for 400hp? Im worried about not being able to put all that power to proper useLast edited by dhcg86; 07-11-2012, 08:35 AM.

I rolled one of my A4 wheels (same specs as above) up against my vert, and I couldn't even lower the jack down..

they also appear to have some flat spots in 2 of the tyres.
Can I use these on my e30 without spacers? Will spacers allow me to run wider tires in the rear?
Should I worry about the flat spots?
Sorry for all the questions; Im a noob!

I don't know why my brain can't figure this out but here's a 3-piece wheel scenario for you to help me calculate:
The 3-piece wheels are 16 X 7.5 et 23 with 1" lips. What would be the new wheel offset if I added 2" lips?
Using an online split rim offset calculator I came up with the new wheel width as 8.5" and the offset would be et 10.3. Did I calculate this correctly? If so, how would this new width and offset fit on a late model 325i?Last edited by ACHTUNG; 07-12-2012, 06:55 PM.1989 US E30 Cammed S52

So 23-25.4= -2.4mm
I've had a long day so check my math. :yawn:.
