Hey guys and girls

Thinking of putting banded wheels on my e30 but was just wondering how wide can i go without any work ?

And if i was to have the arches rolled/flared how wide could i go before i hit the inner arch ?

P.s. will be either 15' / 16'

Thanks peeps

Ive got 15" VW G60 steels banded to 8" on my E30

When i have my 5mm spacers on the rear it rubs a touch even with minor arch rolling.. you might be able to push 9's on a full rolled/flared arch

But im using 195/45's.. might be able to go wider using a skinner tyre also

well if the money arrives im waiting for im hopeing to spend quite a bit on the e30 which includes engine change and hopefully wide wheels for the look aswell as putting the power down

all things permitting wanted to go for 8.5 front and 9.5 rear
