What size rims are u going with?

metrickid · 06-14-2012, 11:30 AM

I want HRE P44SC, but I need to save "some" before that is a reality!

8.5x20 up front and 10.5 in the back. Not as extreme widths as jzhang and longtran but should look good enough.

tiltmode43 · 06-14-2012, 01:53 PM

There is a difference between 'fitting' and fitting without rubbing, even when slightly lowered.

10 ET38 pokes like a 9.5 ET32. I would have to guess this will rub with either a drop or when going over large bumps with a decent sized tire & no fender work.

Why wouldn't this fit? Look at LT's creations with some 10.5 in the rears and offsets 45 if I'm not mistaken?

If this is the case then x10 +38 should "fit" also. Hopefully with just slightly narrow tires and slight drop...Maybe 265 width tires.

LT's also rubs. His rear wheel is 20x11.

pkimM3r · 06-18-2012, 04:39 AM

rubbing against fender = roll + pull
rubbing on the inside and hitting the suspension = uh oh lol

Who's does that? LT?

I'm going with the 18" 397's 'cause I really like the look of them much better than the 19" 401's. Also get the added benefits of a smoother ride, less weight (~18 lbs for all 4 wheels), and the ability to rotate.

This?

I have 20s on mine and it looks good. I posted pics on another thread. Check it out. They are 20x9 in the front and 20 x10 in the rear. No rubbing what so ever and it fits just right.

GT1281 · 06-23-2012, 03:32 PM

Vossen 20"x9" and 20"x10.5"

bosz · 06-23-2012, 09:03 PM

Would 19 inch 9.5 wide and 38 offsets fit the rear,?

onehungevo · 06-24-2012, 09:45 AM

Will a 20x9 35 offset and 255/30/30 tire fit?

I know I'm a little late to the party. I come in peace.

I would go with more rubber than 235/35. My reasoning is due to the 235/35's having a pretty light load rating at "91" combined with the tiny sidewall equals lots of pothole dodging.

Unfortunately I was not given the same advice, so I thought I'd pass my experience along.

I have 20" oem 356 wheels off of a 6 series on my car with 245/30 and 275/30 runflats and there is plenty of tire even with the low profiles. I think the 20's suit the size of the car well but Im undecided if I want to go back to 19's and lower. I think it looks good I just have to get better pictures.

heres a couple, and heres a link to my thread http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=709645

Wow that looks really good. Did you lower the car? I see a little gap.

Just madaptive suspension. The gap isnt really that bad but sometimes on an incline the front looks higher. I would love to lower the car but want to wait a bit and see what options come up.

We ran 19x8.5 +35 front and 19x9.5 +40 rear, tires are 225 front and 255 rear.

onehungevo · 07-03-2012, 05:46 PM

Will 19x9.5 38 offset and 265/30/19's fit lowered on super sport springs?
