This thread has just inspired me to get flares so I can fit semi's on 16x9 ESM 002 Rs reps.

Want to save on shipping? I want a set of IE flares for my nugget.

How do you fit these tires on an e30?.....





















Flares, of course!







This Silence's GRM car, zero offset rims, pre-bodywork.

I believe they do. Either way, go with the 9's. They will allow a bigger tire in the future and you acn fit a 215 on them with ease. That is what I am currently running.

I want to run 9s but I hate stretch and I don't think I can do a 9 with real tires without flares.

I'm thinking about getting the silver ones for my ix but I don't think they come in a 8in. wide version.

The gold ones, yes. They are 17x9's. Thank you for the compliment.
