    Picture request: 205/60/14..

    I have searched but could not find any pictures of 205/60/14 tire size on an e30. Please post if you have any.. I'm thinking of upgrading to 14" basketweaves with 205/60/14 falken ziex 512's. I need to see how good it looks.

    thanks.

    I had a setup on my last E30 and it made it handle kinda weird because they bulged out on the sides so they would roll over more. Id stick with a 195 especially on a 6.5" rim.

    Ill see if I can find pics of them though.

      205/60-14 rear 195/60-14 front Sumitomo HTR 200. I hate those bottlecap rims so bad. I want
      15" rims with falken 615's or so. Looks good though with the basketweaves and the 205's all around. I had that setup on a Red 325is.

        205's are getting up there.. .I am running a (spare) 215/60/r14 on my 3rd car right now and there's about 1.5mm to spare.

        it's not waht you requested, but 195/65/r14 looks really nice, IMO, if you like that balloon style or don't want your car to look-just-like the eurobots out there.

            I like wide tires better, and need to see how wide 205/60/14 looks...
            (thanks for the pictures..)

                I'll take my medicine: no, I didn't know. The only stock size I know/knew of is 205/55/r15 (for my ix) :???:

                    ^^ nice shots there, I like how it looks. But can we go any wider with the stock weaves..?

                        I have the same size on my front left, only temporary though. It was my spare tire for a long road trip and I had a blowout.

                        I'd be hesitant to run a 215/60/r14 full-time on the fronts... just so little clearance to the strut tube.
