would 18 inch alloys fit an e30 325, 1989

[raj83]

hi i wanted to no if i could fit 18 inch alloys on standard springs and shocks

[maxfield]

Yes, arches might need to be rolled though.

[hubble]

You're going to need pile cream by the time you've finished with those rims fella

[Jhonno]

even if they fit they will look shit esp with standard suspension

[kidsinister]

You can fit them, as long as you don't want to drive it afterwards...

[harry_p]

wow, i've always wanted to see an e30 donk

[Fal_325i]

They will fit, search for siddiqi1 0n the forum, he had 18" wheels with a 60mm drop, arches weren't rolled as I put the 18" Wheels on it from when I had the car.

[kingcruizer]

one of my old cabs was lowered 40mm and i had 7.5x19 without any form of arch mod. had no probs either.

It was such a shame that they used a mint BMW It's funny and everything, but why not use a shed, that car looked really nice before they put that damned rangie chassis under it.

What tripe! Why is it a shame?

Why would you waste time amd money fannying around with a shed?

There are plenty of straight cabbies about. They tend not to rust as bad as tin tops.

Wearing flat caps and jizzing over stock BBS all day does get tiresome.

[howie]

Got 18's on mine was lowered 60mm all round , with slight rubbing on the front but that might just have been due to leaking shocks. Now went an lowered by 35mm with new shocks with no rubbing whatsoever

[siddiqi1]

Fal's, right buddy...look below! never rubbed even with two people in the back and a loaded boot!!

However, i will agree, bloddy uncomfortable, headache and now ive learned my wrongness and put on my NEWLY REFURBED 15" BBS, feels like im rolling on smooth roads all the time, so relaxing now!

And there you have it big inch fiends. If you want to spend llots on tyres, look like a council c0ck, lose your fillings,ruin the way your car drives and did i mention look like a c0ck ? go for some big rims and keep us entertained as you bounce around looking sad.
On the other hand if you like your car and you enjoy driving it stick to 15s or good quality 16s, sh1t even bottle tops are less shameful than big teens !

[alex-e30]

pretty fly for a white guy!

[racinrabbit]

ive got 18" and a meant to be 60mm but its more than that, and mine fit fine !!!!

[GrindCulture]

I hate the look of big wheels. 15s or 16s with skinny stretched rubber looks the don IMO!

[alex-e30]
