AVID.1 16x8 +25 wheels… I was thinking about sticking on 5mm spacers as well for a more herra frush look (not so much)
Running 205/50/16. Is this a more square tire? when i put this on the rim, will it stretch? or bulge? I don't like the bulge look i'm getting on my 14" bottle caps. Running 195/60 or something right now. It's ugly.

Originally posted by GOT8SPD View PostSorry…second question. I want to convert from lug bolts to studs. However, with this AVID 1 wheels…it has this cover on the wheels. How long/short should i go with as far as the studs so that it doesn't hit the cover? I guess I need to factor in the length since I will be wanting to run 5mm spacers.
thanks!
Originally posted by mmeyer08 View PostThanks a lot, I ended up ordering the 64mm studs. They were to big, but Ryan Castro from motersports hardwear (a fellow e30 enthusiast) contacted me, after my wrong order, to make it right. My order got fixed, I'm glad they know there business over at motersports hardwear!
Big thanks to you aswell Mystikal!
Cheers mates!

E36 M3 5lug fronts
E30 M3 5lug rears
Wheels are E31 17" Staggered Style 5s.
Origional specs are
17x8 et10 front
17x9 et19 rear
I took them apart had them refinished. When I put them back together i swapped the centers from front to rear so fronts are now 17x8 et19 and rears are 17x9 et10 or close to there.
What size tires would work? currently ive got a sqaure setup of 17x8.5" with 245/40/17 all around. So i have a grip setup, I think with these wheels id like to go more of a stance fitment but still keep the tires on the meaty side.

Thank you as always for your guidance on this. I am looking at some BBS RS wheels. Specs:
Fronts 16x8(+27), Rears 16x8.5 (+19)
Going on an early model, coilover suspension. Would like as much rubber without rolling fenders as possible.
Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone,
So I purchased Kamoto's Ultra Wide fender flares not to long ago, and it is time for me to put them on and figure out what wheels/tires I want to run, but I have no idea. My wheel/tire game is terrible.
I don't want to give away my power goals, but lets say in the 400-700hp range (in the end).
Can anyone help me out with dimensions of the wheel and possible tire selections? Is 15", 16" or 17" best? Is a wider wheel better or a less wide wheel with a wider tire?
It would be awsome if i can get a nice fitment on the first go with these flares (I dont want a "slammed" look)My 2JZ e30 Build
