APT 179 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 Anywho, im looking at spacing my Alpinas that are now ET25 with a 15mm spacer, would this make it ET10? Question is How far over the guard will the wheels sit ?? looking at running 205/40/17s aswell. I was on a website a while back where you could pick your wheel size, tyre size and offset and it would have a range of photos of e30's that have that combo- think it was more for stretching tyres can anyone link me to that. Yess i do want that mint wide wheels look. Any advice ? thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rule of thumb for agressive stance on E30's. 0 at the front -10 at the back. I'm pretty sure R3V or E30Tech have a wheel fitment thread you can check out too.

APT 179 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 - 10 in the rear !!? So i would really be after 25mm spacers then for the fronts. Or better yet get new lower offset wheels and space them lol. Thanks for that man. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greenday-rulz21 4 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 You've probably seen this thread. Here. Got some examples. I personally think ET10 would be good without having to do too much guard work etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dreadful1 7 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 DO IT! Never really seen some spaced out alpina wheels on a E30, I reckon it would look so sick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lucan 196 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 How wide are your wheels? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_BRS_ 208 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 I wouldnt bother spacing them out if they are only 17x7.5. Save your money and get 15x8/9 or 16x8/9 and go hard with them if you are after wide+low+stance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SIR E30 68 Report post Posted May 7, 2010 My wheels are 9s at ET10 and they are flush. If you go et10 on a 7.5 they still wont look that wide. Also, if you want the stretched look you should buy some bigger rims. Watch this space, I might be importing another lot from the states. ESM, keskins, or Miros (the wheels that are on my car) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
