    Im looking to run fender flares that are 50mm wide in the front (2 inches) and 70mm wide in the rear (2.7 inches) and I was wondering what setup I should run in regards to spacers and tire size. I have 16x9 et15 borbet type a's all around and I'm maxed out on bc coilovers. I am looking to get my wheels as close to the edge of the flare as possible and fit as much tire that I can underneath. Thanks.

      1989 E30 325i Sedan with lowering springs (40mm all around).

      Thinking to get 16x8 +25 square setup.

      Do I need to get the spacers or fender rolled?

      And please recommend me the best tire setup for this wheel/offset set!

      Thank you very much!

        I have a post E30 with H&R Race springs, I want to mount 15x6 et35s, and I want to use 25mm spacers in the rears and 20mm in the front. Will I have issues? I don't want to roll fenders.

        Thanks in advance.

          Depends on tire size but that should be fine.

                Looking to do a nasieg/elcoy 5 lug BBK kit w/ e46 front hubs and e30 m3 rears. What is the ideal offset? I would really love to run without spacers. Is there a staggered setup that works?

                Any chance I can run E38 Style 5's 16x8? I think its a et23 offset.

                  Hi:

                  I just bought a set of BBS RX wheels, 4x100, 16x7 ET35 from another forum member. They came with hubcentric rings. When HE purchased them, they also came with 10 mm spacers which he ran in the rear only of his E30. That did not make sense to me. My E30 has H&R Sports, Billy Sports and E90 drop hats. I do not want to roll the fenders. I plan on running 205/50R16 tires. Do I need 15mm spacers on all four corners? That's what I'm thinking to get to ET20. Thanks. Swen.

                    Max tyre size

                    Hello,

                    Wondering if I still can get some feedback on this great thread.

                    I have a 320i 1986 2dr, stock fenders, H&R sport springs.
                    I also have 16 inch 7j Postert rims.

                    I'm looking for Yokohama AD08R tires. What will be the max width that will fit?

                      Curious what it would look like ass far as sidewall goes

                        Looking for some help!

                        I have a late model e30 on H&R race springs with Bilsteins and I want to buy a set of 17s for it. Here are the specs:

                        Front: 17x8 et25
                        Reat 17x9 et20

                        I know I will most likely need to roll the fenders, which I am fine with (actually I was thinking flares) but I need the biggest possible tires in the back so I can put down the power. I dont want any stretch. I was thinking 235 front and 255 in the back but wanted to know if I will have any issues with strut or shock clearance.

                        Car is a S52 turbo runing on e85. Havent dynoed yet but I am shooting for 600whp.

                        Thanks in advance!

                          Hi, I'm looking to get a new set of wheels for my e30, my question is if 16x8J wheels w/ an ET around 20ish will fit without rubbing(Fenders not rolled). Tires wouldn't be anything crazy, open to suggestions here. I like some poke but not to the point where I'll be rubbing. Thanks!

                            Can someone confirm this will work without any rubbing? Do I need spacers??

                                Does anyone know if BMW Style 15 (16x7.5 et20) will clear e36 m3 brakes?
                                I know e38 style 5s can but can't find information on style 15s clearing (w/ or without spacers)

                                thanks
