What offset do I need? E36 M3 Hub Setup

[Rickz]

Hi guys,

Wondering if you can help at all?

My cab came with a 5 stud conversion which a E36 M3 Evo setup at the front and I'm pretty sure the rear have E36 Compact Rear Swing Arms.

I have E36 M3 Brake setup all round too.

Now the question is, I am going for some Hartge Rims but not too sure what offset I need?

It is a m3 rep convertible but I want the weels to sit flush with the arch. Under no circumstances do I want the wheels to stick out?

Will I get away with ET25 all round??

I thought if I go 8.5j on the front and 9.5j on the rear, I could always play around with spacers to get the perfect fitment.

Anybody???

I know from experience 8j at et29 sits a tad proud. Only slightly mind. What size are your rims? If they are 16”a you will also need to consider brake caliper clearance. If they are 15s they eont fit at all. I'm on 16's now, et47 x 7j but need 15mm spacers to clear the brakes. So effectively et32. They sit perfectly.

I'm going for 17s!

In my setup i did't measure it but people say its about +20mm per wheel. So its ET+20 comparing to stock E30
