1987 325es
I looked through this thread for a very long time and couldn't seem to find it but I'm going to order Team Dynamics 1.2 in either 16 or 17. I don't really care which. But I would like to fill the fender up and run 235/45 or equivalent tires. Which is the best size wheel to order with offset so I won't have to run spacers? They offer pretty much whatever you could possibly want. Just want to get it right the first time and not have to mess with it!
Thanks!

How would this set up be? Would it be more ideal to remove the spacers and just have the 16x8 et25 wheels on front and rear?
I'm currently lowered about 1.6-1.8 inches.
Thank you!!

I have a 1989 325i with bilsten sports and h&r springs about 1.25" drop. I just bought some 15x7 et 33 and now I am questioning my purchase. I don't know what exact tires to put on I was thinking either 205/215? and 45/50? Just seems like that is the tire other people have used. I am worried the wheels won't work properly. Plus I'm not exactly sure which tires will be the best. Thanks Jay!

Originally posted by Mystikal View PostThe wheels should just barely work without any spacers. They will be close to the suspension for sure, but should clear. Stick to 205/55 for stock overall diameter, or 205/50 in a pinch. You can later buy 10-15mm spacers all around if you'd like, for better fitment.
