    15x10 rear?

    anyone know if 15x10 will fit the rear of the early e30s?
    i dont know the offset but what would be a good offset to run?
    im looking to run these wheels with
    15x8 up front
    15x10 in rear
    with probally 205/50/15 tires

    they say they make them custom so what offset would be good?
    i know rolling of fenders is required but besides that?
    thanks!!

    ps: lowered on GC and bilstiens

    hmm, i will let the master Jay answer this for sure, but i would say if you wanna go low, then some custom fender working on the rear is gonna have to happen, otherwise the wheels are just going to be poking out really bad....

      im just going off this guy that says he has
      15x8 front and 15x10 rear.
      never said his offset n etc.
      but his rear fenders dont look that pulled/rolled.


      hmmmm...what would be the widest for the rear than?

      thanks

        It can work. Qimis is running 16x10 bbs rso1's on the rear and 16x9.5 in the front of his e30.

          do you know what offset he is running?
          tire size?
          and how much of fender pull?
          thanks +1

            205/50s should not be installed on a 10" wide wheel, even if it can be done... That is asking for trouble.

              16x10 ET0 would probably work just fine. You'd need to pound the rear lips vertical and you'd have to stretch a 225, but it would work and look good.

              I already have too many wheels for my car but I keep having evil thoughts about 11" RS out back...

                      It'll mount, but you realize the rear wheels will be like 3" outside of the fenders, right?

                        Wow and I thought 225 on a 8.5 inch rim would look stretch!

                          I have 8,5x17" ET 14 with 215/35-17 and 10x17" ET14 with 245/35-17 on my E30 cabrio and no big problems. Just some rear-arch-rolling and that's all.





                          ET 0 is way too little to almost any wheel on E30 if you don't have M3 track-arches.

                            roads here would tear those wheel and tire combo up. Are roads are junk.
