zero 1162 Report post Posted June 19, 2019 Looks good. Can you fit anything wider than the 215 on the rear or will it rub? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qube 3570 Report post Posted June 19, 2019 these RK's are specifically designed for the E39 but do fit E36/E46 with stretched and low profile tyres with camber. 215/35 is probably the only tyre that would make it work on the E36. on the E46 you could probably go a tad wider but 225/35/18 isnt a common size like 225/40 or 215/35. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I imagine he could do those supacheap auto ads where the worker guesses the oil filters, but with wheels. The wheels look nice for sure, but what about the compromise with grip and handling having stretched 215's? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nah homs...dont know wheter it was thee air...or the soil..or just the heart of the land..but coming from the land of South Africa...its like we have part-animal in us. Getting a e36 coupe with its tough az M50b25 manual with a lsd as a toy...one tends to unleash that beast which we always have to tame. Shes loose...and fun. The balance of an e36 is amazing...so...getting a low profile tyre with a big az wheel and dropping her as low as i can slows me down...which in calculation..is good...in my theory. My licence was once suspended when a 1000cc was in my hands so before too many streets got tattooed...she got "Stanced" homs?
