I am currently purchasing esm 002's staggered 16x8 F(20 offset) 16x9 R(15 offset). What size tires are my best bet. Also, do i need spacers for the fronts or rears?

205/45 all around. No spacers.

[Mystikal]

How well will these fit on a mostly stock '92 e30 Cabrio? 16x7 +30 4x100 Sparco Terra with 215/50-16 Dunlop Direzza DZ102.

Well. Fronts will be very close to the struts though, might need a 3mm for safety.

[Mystikal]

Could I run a 16x8 et15 wheel with a 205-50-16 tire with no fender rolling?
If not what can I do to run 16x8s?

No, 205/45 is necessary for clearance.

[Mystikal]

Looking at a 17x8.5 +35 offset. What can I do to get to them to work?

15mm spacers all around, 205/40 tires.

[Mystikal]

Could I run BBS style 29's with 18mm 5x120 adapter on a 1990 convertible, lowered about 1.5" with no rolling? What tire size would work?

What offset and with are they?

Looking to get a set of wheels. I plan on running 15x8 +38 in the rear and 15x7 +25 in the front. What size spacer/tire should I run for an aggressive fitment?

15mm front 20mm rear. 195/50 front 205/50 rear.

[Mystikal]

welp. i suppose it does NOT fit...sad day.

Rears fit GREAT, couldnt be more perfect. However the fronts stick out a good amount from the fender AND they are rubbing the struts.

Going to get 5mm spacers and extended bolts. See if it at least fixes the clearance issues. i think a lower profile tire will be more useful as well, thinking a 45 or 40 instead of the 50mm.

I think it's going to look pretty terrible sticking out 5mm more up front

12-15mm front spacers and 205/45 tires all around. It'll poke without camber plates and not match the rear at all, though.

What size spacers front and rear? 1990 325is on H&R Sport.

10mm front hubcentric. Rears can work with none at all, up to 5mm works without fender rolling. 10mm if rolled flat.

So if I wanted to get close to flush without rolling what would you use? could I go front and rear?

10 front and 5 rear for my 225? could I go 10mm and 8mm?

Hi!

I bought some BBS RS's in 16x8.5 et20 and 16x9 et8. I have 195/45 front and 205/45 rear tyres.

The car will be on bags soon and I'm just wondering what size spacers i should get in order to get the wheels close to lip to fender when aired out.
Thinking of getting 20mm front and 5-10mm rear.

using e30m3 5 lug hubs if it makes any difference.

Thanks! :)
