    205/40 is the common choice. You'll need to roll and maybe pull your rear fenders for clearance. Same with the fronts if you're VERY low and don't have camber plates.

      Will 18x8.5/9.5 et 25 wheels fit E36 sedan? Recommended tyre sizes?

      Thanks a million :)
      Yup. 215/35 front 225/35 rear is ideal. You'll need a rear fender roll.

            205/60/14 on the stock weaves (14x6.5 ET30 bavauto springs with billies)... What spacer size would you recommend to get as far out as possible without having to roll fenders? Would an 10mm be possible?

            Thanks!!

                  17x7.5 with offset of 35 work on my 91 coupe or is the offset no good?

                  Got a deal on some wheels from a Honda club guy but the offset is my concern.

                  Thanks!
                  '91 318is, S50 swap, Bilsteing/H&R race, Recaro SRD, etc.

                    They'll likely just clear the struts without spacers, but look very poor. 15mm spacers all around (or 20mm rear for even fitment).

                      Quick question. I should be fine with 205/60 512's on my bcaps with gc coils, correct?

                              Yes, if they're redrilled. If your car is 5-lug it will be very close to rubbing in the rear.

                                Thanks! They are filled and drilled.
