conrod 1 Report post Posted March 25, 2006 (edited) I remember fitting a set of Schnitzer wheels to a new E34 way back when, a staggered setup,235's on the front on whatever rims, and I think the rears were 10" and they had 285's on the rims, which were maybe a tad wide for them. Anyway, if my somewhat hazy long term memory serves me correctly, we had to get the rear arches rolled to clear these monsters. I am not 100% certain on the rim size, everthing else I am, and it came down to the tyres being a bit on the large side, 255 or 265's probably would have been okay.

martyyn 2 Report post Posted March 25, 2006 I had a set of these on my e32 and they were a nice snug fit. 265 on the rear I believe is the correct sizing....on an e34 I dont know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacobfie525 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2006 I Know That For Aftermarket Wheels I Was Being Suggested Sizes Up To 19"x9.5" That Fit Fine. Not Sure If A 10" Wide Wheel Will. But 9.5" Does. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
