    That was exactly my though. I though it was a mistype and he meant to put 7. The wheels do look really good regardless. I like the design a lot.

      You are 100% wrong. Depending on how you "squeeze" them together before you attach them they added over an inch of width and I cut out well over 2 inches of height.

      Sorry mang, you are wrong.

      Cut out:


      Width:
      These are 255's on all 4 corners. Going with my fitted and perfect fitting 275's next season.

      This is a shitty pic but you can see the additional room I still have.

            Thanks man, I appreciate that. These pics make me realize how bad I need to shadowline this pig.

              That thing is looking sexy. TRM's are pretty decent wheels I am saving up to pick up the 15x8 c1's off tirerack. They are direct fit so thats pretty nice. Really like the fender flares, I don't understand how some people are saying they add no additional space.

                I've just stated my personal experience. I helped a buddy install his and it became very evident that they are made for the 2002, while the E30 was an afterthought.

                  Well played, and I agree. truthfully, we are lucky they fit the E30 at all. Not much support in that area for these cars. We did "squeeze" them together a bit more than they were meant to be but we also heated and "remolded" them to a certain extent (especially around the gas door).

                    Yeah, I helped 'TylerCoey' put his one. Cut, heat, custom molding was in effect.

                      I like them. Too bad they need big spacers. How wide of tires are people fitting on the C1s without problems?

                          Would look perfect if the rocker panels were black IMO. Still looks great though.

                            I have no idea. I just tossed on some 205s I had in the garage

                              Do you run those TR in autox with the spacers? Any issues?
                              I really like the look but never used spacers @ the track..
