New Wheels/ Member Intro

[Jesse30]

coilovers are needed to pull those wheels off.

uh, what?

[SLK]

i am running 205/16/45. My rear fenders are rolled and i still have slight rubbing over bigger bumps. My front left fender got slightly bent due to pulling into a driveway too fast and the wheel made full on contact with the fender. so now it rubs but slashes into my tire. I am fixing that this weekend. But for the most part they dont rub that much at all.

[luTTz]

the front wheels stick out too far. you need a different offset, or a 7" wheel.

More Sportmaxes??!?

These shits are getting to be like Alpina Kopis on all the UK cars...

If I even consider these for my next E30, I will cut my penis off and sell it on ebay.

[ZiMMie]

uh, what?

u need to be slammed with those wheels not lowered.

[euroshark]

Even slammed they don't fit right, so why bother?

i guess none of you guys have actually ridden in a car with these wheels. I cant go any lower even if i wanted to for daily driving. at least around here the minnesota streets suck too much.

for those who dont like them, thats great. I am glad they arent on your car then. I love them. And i am very happy with them. They are just some wheels for the time being. They probably will be sold before next summer.

And i would get the 7" wheels but the offset makes the wheels sit too deep in the wheel well for my tastes. And spacers are not worth the price of the wheels.

so you'd rather have it look bad? honestly, at least space out the back wheels or something... the front ones stick out uber far compared to the back.

spacers in the back is the way to go.

If they sit too far in, just bite the bullet and get some spacers... The wheels sticking out PAST the fender opening is fucking ghetto.

ahem. mexican.

the photo makes it look alot worse than it is. but i am happy with it and i am not about to spend the money for spacers when i can spend it elsewhere on my car, like towards a motor swap.

I believe he is saying you should go with the 7" fronts and the spacers, as per this comment:
