        I've got 16x8 +20 offset wheels and I'm thinking of running a 205/50. I've got a sedan lowered on h&r race/billy sports and my fenders are rolled already. Would 205/50s run without rubbing? Also would I need to use spacers?

          I've got 14x6 +13 and +8 wheels. Thing is that they're 4x114, so I'll need adapter spacers, thinnest being 15mm, which would make effective offset 14x6 -2 and 14x6 -7. Would these fit an e30 running H&R OE Sport and stock 195 60R14 tires?

              10mm hubcentric (with lip) spacers all around and 205/50 tires. You need the spacers for the front strut clearance.

                Looking to run a 17" wheel. 8/9 inch width and a tire with little to no stretch.

                Just too many variables there for me to make any sort of suggestion. You'll need to test and try stuff out.

                  Nope.

                    So 225's would be a bad idea?

                      i have a 1990 318is, just picked up some 16x7 ET33 BBS RS with 4x114.3PCD which are going in for a full refurb.

                      i could fill and drill but i'd rather run 20mm adapters as i'd like a nice wide track and would therefore run beefy spacers anyway.

                      i know ET25 is the ideal, and these would end up being 12mm further out, but any possibility this would fit? and what tyres should i run? and would i then need to roll the fenders?
                      Sure, with 205/45 tires. Shouldn't need a roll.

                        Which 5-lug?

                            Yep. No spacers.

                              Unfortunately not. From my calculations if you run something silly like a 175/65 they can fit. Otherwise it's too far outside.

                                No idea if there's anything matching available. Staggered 16" for E30s pretty much requires mismatched tires now.
