          Not tubbed. Just home made inner fenders so both sides match.

                How much would the different hubs affect the offset do you think, if any at all?

                I love the look of your e30 and am aiming for the same ammount of low on my e30, im just trying to figure out what wheel setup to go for at the moment and am curious about offsets ha. The wheels im after are 15x8 and 15x9 so id have to adjust for the 9's but otherwise your setup seems perfect.

                Mind me asking how much camber you think the car runs when aired out?

                    Are you running bags or coils? This is the same car on groundcontrol and 16x9 et 20 with 205/45's and 10mm spacers in the back i think..

                        Im running coils, ive got some BC BR Super lows, havent yet got the fronts welded in though. Does the car have the 5 -stud conversion in that pic? Cos my 17x7 ET38 rims are barely a mm from my front shock tower at the moment, and willtheyfit.com says that ET20 9" would sit inside my tower ha. This is my first time buying/swapping wheels so appologies if im missing something obvious that would allow those wheels to fit

                        Edit: missed a word ha.

                          You do realize that willtheyfit.com isn't set up specifically for E30's, right? The strut they show isn't going to be an accurate representation of where the E30's strut is going sit. willtheyfit.com is just a good tool to use if you already have a beginning reference.

                            Thats true. But it does show that with that offset the 16x9 ET20 would sit with the inside edge of the rim more so thsn the 17x7 ET38 which is already sitting right up against the strut. More inset would mean it would have to be insisde the strut...

                              Its 4 lug in this pic.. 16x9 in front with 5mm spacer.. Just throw a 5 or 10mm spacer on and you be good.. Space it out till it looks how you want it to be..

                                I see what you were saying, now. I didn't realize you were basing your measurements for the 16x9's on 17's that you had. Yeah et13 will set the 16's at the same spot as the 17's in your case.
