You'll never notice a 3% speedo error. Like you said, probably a correction

No but my local fuzz tend to harass nice cars.

nope, you would be someone who needs to post pics of a good set-up.
225 on a 9in wheel is perfectly acceptable. That tire has decent sidewall to make up for the added width. Bet it looks great.

See I don't think a 225 does as here's mine and they look stretched.



Needs to slightly wider.

Would like to see that car on the ground. I like those wheels, what are they?
Theres a little stretch there, what aspect ratio are they, 45?

Borbet B 16x9 all the way around. Car is under knife but under hold till house work is done. Thats been eating up my spare time. Besides it will be 5 lug when done. No engine in it so really can't see them when they like that. Car is empty No fuel tank no interior no nothing.



On my late model. needs a 3 mm spacer upfront.

looks amazing. if you go 5 lug and its the right time i would love to take those wheels off of you lol.

I also have a set of 7.5's x4 so I could sell two sets of staggers.

[UDelaware30]

with the current set up on my car i would be interested in running 9's all the way around. Dont want any understeer, and would like to be able to rotate front to back.

i'm all for non-undersized tires, but i'm not for tires that are too tall. 225/50-16 is too large of a diameter and your speedo will read slow. i'm sure you realize this already though.

fenders were already pulled, im running 225/50/15 on my car daily so i appreciate the extra room i have. These wheels werent planned, im basically proving they can fit (sexily) on an e30 for my roomate and his brother's car.

What tires are you finding in 225/50/15? I've been using Toyo T1Rs for a few years on my MINI, but Toyo stopped making them in that size. Just went for 205/55/15, and if I can make the spacing work, I'll put them on my 318is, as well (on 15x7 +40mm Team Dynamics Pro Race 1 wheels).

the 225/50/15's were toyo proxes 4 up front and 225/50/15 t1r's out back. The rears are gone though, was looking to get a matching set of proxes 4's for all seasons.
