ASK ALL WHEEL/TIRE FITMENT QUESTIONS HERE - The Official Wheel/Tire Fitment Thread

[IRON-E]

I have some 16x8 et 23 and 16x9 et 14, I'd like to put on my car. I'm looking to add a 15mm spacer to the 16x8 and a 10mm spacer to the 16x9.
What's the biggest tire size I could run, to have minimal rubbing under the fenders. My fenders are already all rolled and I'm coil overs with camber plates.

The rears are just too aggressive. With just front spacers and none in the rear, 205/45 all around can be fitted.

So no other options?

Yokohama S.Drives in 175/50r16 and 195/45r16 sizes and the most aggressive roll of your life. *puts up umbrella for following shit storm*

I already purchased 17x8 and 17x9 wheels with et25....what are my options as far as tires or should I change width on tires my car is completely stock 1991 318is

[pepperjackdaisy]

Another option, opinions please.

Should just barely work with 195/55/15 tires. Very aggressive fitment.

Thanks for the info, but I think I've moved to another option. Again, E30 cabrio, KYB and H&R Sports. She sits a bit lower in the 2nd pic, since the springs have settled.

Any fitment issues here? Tire sizes with no stretch, and little to no speedo errors?

Sometimes. There is no guarantee a 12mm will work either, though.

Do you think I'll have to get extended lugs ? Or stick with what I have

If you do a 12mm spacer you will need extended lugs.

Ok thx I'm hoping 10mm is fine I don't want to do a 12 I'm afraid of the fronts poking out too far and it looking dumb

17x8 ET34 on a late model sitting on IE3s. Fenders aren't currently rolled but could be.

What size tires should I run? Spacers needed?

[White325is]

Early model coupe with z3m rear 5 lug and e36m fronts. 18" is the smallest wheel that can be fitted due to the brakes. So what width and et do you suggest with running a "normal" size tire.

[NC325iC]

Mystical, do you have any recommendations?

looking for a good tire recommendation. There seem to be far fewer options in my current tire size.

I am running a set of DForce LTW5 15" wheels. My current tires are 225/50/15

Street driving only, what size/brand/model tire would you recommend?

[89DirtyE30]

i recently picked up some trm 15x7 et25 wheels. Ive got 205/55 15s on the car right now, but would like to go wider. Ive heard 225 45 or 50s are about as wide as you want. Biggest question is who makes a decent tire in those sizes. Mostly for daily use with occasional autocross. Supercharged m20 laughs at my crappy 205s.

[ST1G]

Front: Can't work
Rear: 225/45s and a good fender roll.

You're saying I can run that wheels size on the front at all?

EDIT. To make it easy, my 16x9 +25 modern lines.

Stock IX basketweaves (ET 45 I believe) on my stock 88IX with stock suspension.
I have some tires I'd like to use on front and back that are 225/50.
Will they rub?
