        My plan is to run 15x7 (15 offset) all around on 205/50-15's.

        However, I was wondering what I would need to do to run 15x8 (15 offset) with 225/50-15's? I'd like the wider wheel but I don't want to have to stretch tires to make it work.
        The 15x8s will only work with 205s.

          Would a regular tire shop be able to mount 205/50 on a 16x8 wheel without problems? Thanks

                225/40 245/35 for no fender rolling. 255/35 rear with a roll. I'd suggest 15mm front spacers to even out the fitment.

                      hi mystikal,
                      the front rims 7.5x18 lip is 1in, i have plan in future to change the lip into 2in.
                      the tire you suggest 225/40 i can still use? or must change the tire size?

                      and how about the tire for 17x8.5 et.13 (acs type 1) on e36? my friend suggest 205/45 flat.

                        If you want to feel rich, just count all the things you have that money can't buy.

                          15mm necessary, but like 30mm to look good (won't rub).

                            So they'd be 18x8.5 +32. That's perfect and you can still use the 225/40.

                            205/40 or 215/40 for the ACS.

                                Alright Mr. Wheel Guru man! Need your help again. i have an 88 ix. i have Varrstoen V1s 16x8 +25 on my car right now with the H&R lowering springs and koni yellow struts. the car has 205/45/16 tires and they're a bit more stretched then id like.

                                would like to fill up the gap just a little, want a little bit more tire there, kinda like this

                                Obviously i want a look "LIKE" this, because clearly i cant have 10 inch wide tires nore do i drive an m3 with wider fenders then an ix. do your magic please sir!!! Thank you
