    Staggered 16x7.5" and 16x9" ???

    I'll post more info about this question later- to help clarify. But I'm wondering if anyone has seen or is running 16x7.5 fronts and 16x9 rears on a stock body E30 (non-M3)?? The wheels in question are Old school Borbet 5 spokes, not sure of offset, but they are on an E30 now without spacers (I think..). Tires are like 205/40R16's (tire stretch FTL).


    Like I said, more info and pics (hopefully) will follow.... :)

        Yeah, I might want to go 16x9's all around- but the wheels in question are staggered like I mentioned.... :)

          oo..sorry. I thought you were questioning to go with the staggered or go 16x9's all the way around, my fault.

          Here is the one with A's. Look at the 3 post down, when he is by the sidewalk.

            Thanks for the link Ant. That definitely looks like these wheels.

            I'll post some pics up tomorrow.

                          There's no guessing. It's really not hard. Look at the pictures. Many of the pictures are titled with the kind of wheels the people have.
