I was considering the RT615s but only 195/60s? I guess 205/60-14s wouldn't be any better... if Azenis even come in that size. I meant silly as in wide and tall... since they are only 14s.Last edited by DEV0 E30; 03-09-2007, 09:20 AM.

Mystikal,
I’m looking for a lightweight 17 x 8 wheel with the correct offset and center bore to fit my ’87 325is. I plan to run 235/40/17s all the way around. I’d prefer not to run spacers, however am not totally against it, if required. The lighter the wheel the better, however I’m more concerned with fitment then anything else.
Are there are couple different wheels you’d recommend?
I’m running -3 degrees of camber up front and -2 degrees of camber in the rear. Will I need to roll the rear fenders?
Thanks,

Andy, Rota can produce a few different wheels in that size. You will want approximately ET32 or numerically higher. The wheels within a few mm of ET32 may require a 3mm spacer to clear the front struts, depending on the tire used. In an ideal world, I'd shoot for ET28. With that offset, 235's on an early car with that much camber probably won't even need fender rolling.
Hope that helped,
Jay
