Wheel/Tire Fitment

[dinanm3atl]

So I know you can fit 0 offset like the sportmax 002s. I really like the look. Do I have to run 195 tires?

I have a set of 205 tires and was hoping to run those... possible?

215 40 16 is the biggest you can run realy. its my setup now. i also have pretty rolled fenders and stiff suspension so keep that in mind.

205 45 would work very nicely. stay away from 50 series...

205/50 is still undersized. 205/45 is WAY undersized.

E-rich is talking about his 16's, 205/45-16 isn't off by far

15x8 sportmax with 205/50-15 will work fine, although rolled fenders and a decently stiff suspension is definately a must.

yes i was speaking of 16s. 205-50-15s work nicely. not a whole lot of stretch.

I would never run 0 offset of undersized tires, sorry.

et0 is a bit much, et5 is the max I'd go.

I really like the look and for atleast a year I will not be slamming my e30 like the one in egk2's sig :)

Just a mild drop. Suspension travel should more than take up the extra space :)

Thanks guys!

its funny cuz if i remember right you were running 215-40-17s on your turbo car, correct? im running 215-40-16s on an 8. i personally dont like having an inch to two inches between my tire And fender. doesnt look undersized to me.

[dinanm3atl]

damn looks good. I think I will order these wheels

IMHO unless the car is slammed, pokey wheels look extra goofy.

I don't know what you're trying to say but 215/40/17 is the correct size for an E30.

Nah, too much gap in the front with a saggy rear. I agree with the car
needs to be slammed for the euro look.
