Wheels

[Jamboree]

Looking at getting borbet a wheels 16.0 -9.0 all round just wondering why they do 16.0 - 7.5 on front is this to aid lowering what set up should I get if wanting to drop it on it bottom your thoughts please

They do 0ffer 7.5" rimz for people who are more interested in a car that drives well rather than looking like some dubscum loser wannabe

to go low you need decent coilovers, and iirc borbets (not sure if its a or b possibly both) will catch on the strut if using 9j on the front when lowered.
you can get around this by using wheel spacers, but the wheels will most likely stick outside the arches, an mot fail (in ireland anyway not sure about the uk)

to make it easier on yourself, your wallet and your e30, go for the 7.5j fronts

hope that helps

Spot on, they do catch on the Gaz coilovers, and a 3mm spacer on the fronts will over come this.
But it also depends on the length of the front spring too.

gaz, bc, d2 they'll catch on any proper coilovers.

To save hassle do you think I should go 16.0 - 7.5 all round

7.5 up front, 9 at the rear.

Wheels only look as wide as the tyres anyway.
