        Will work like a motherf**ker.
        If you are throwing those in the fronts too, get a 10mm spacer to make the offset et15 to clear the strut
        ET25 on the rear is perfect. You can still use 10mm on the rear if you want to go wider, but u will need to roll the inner lips of quarter panel. I have seen people running ET0 in the rear, 16x10. Go Figure....
        Tire size will go on the wheels nicely. Its not a perfect fit (if you go by the book) but it has been done zillion times. Yes, i am referring to the stretched fit.
        sweet wheels, i am jealous.

              The new wheels...finally rolled the fenders. No more rubbing! Woo Hoo!

              Now I just need to go get some proper shots.

                no doubt! it's a little embarrassing rocking the black lip - i'll paint it as soon as I get some side skirts to match . . .

                                I haven't whored my car out in here yet! :P Proof that 16s are the best sized wheels for an E30. Even on an early model! ;)
