Biggest size wheels

[bazza1975]

Hi all,

I'm after getting a 325i sport and were just wondering what the biggest wheels that can be fitted without having to do major arch work, would 18x8 or 17x8 fit ?

Cheers

22's with spinners is where it's at, accept nothing less

[staley_turbo]

IMO, I think they sit well on 17x8s. NOTHING bigger.
There was a thread a while back where someone put 20s on I think, did arch work etc, looked awful.

[polsta]

my 325 has 17 on, and i dont think the drive is as nice as 15" s on an e30 like my old is has

15" all the way if you like a nice drive, 17" are more cruiser feeling wheels it seems to me

[StefanAnghel]

I also think 18" it's a bit to much... You'll need low profile tyres 35 or 30 and unless you have a good suspension set-up you will feel every stone/hole from the road!

I had only 14",15" and 17"... And I've decide to stay with 17"...

[shedrool83]

17" look good in the arch but the ride isnt good imo
16" is the most i'd go personally.

[MurphyE30]

no more than 17s imo

[hongkongfuey]

i think 16"s 7.5-8 wide front 9" rears

[Steve-E30]

17" look good in the arch but the ride isnt good imo
16" is the most i'd go personally.

Id go with that or stick to original 15" bbs

[Dezzy]

18x9 fronts, 17x6 rears is the perfect for a facelift sport.


Don't listen to this lot. They are all haterz.

Its about the look. Thats what's important.


Lower the biatch by at least 80mm too. Banging E30 FTW

Banging E30 on every speed hump FTW

My old E30 was on 17s, my current is on 15s. 15s FTW

This............ /thread

I must say, I'm still swaying towards 15" BBS and 55 profile tyres myself, but I'm going to change out the rock hard front suspension first.

[leeparkes]

This is an E30 on 19's









Looks gash imo....



Edit, im sure there was a guy on here running 20's. Elf i think his name was.

Fear not, Dezzy. I still have dirty thoughts about doing sick things to cars, Bruv. Just not my present Touring

[Jim320i]

Lee, I actually giggled at those wheels... Way too beig for the E30...

15" is as bit as you need to go to be one of the coolest of kids. In the form of some bbs

Or you could be one of the elite cools and got for the 14" bottletop Which I am really liking at the moment.

Dont they!

Fooking hell they are bad arent they.

[spic]

17 s look nice in the right style but sometimes I think my 17" azev a's look a little too big and to be honest I went against what most said and now wish I fitted 16's

[Hyperion]

i personally have run 17 inch, they look great, ride is not too bad.
can do 18" as well.

Style 5's FTW:

Thanks for all the info & opinions guys.

I'm thinking of a red 325i M Tech II & quite like the idea of some gunmetal roulette style wheels in 17x8 Compomotive TH or O.Z. WRC.

[Kos]

the right wheel and substantial drop they can look decent, dips had 19's on one years ago and it was slammed

elf fitted 20's and it looked pony



Baz, 17's TH's would look good as do 17" MO's.

[beemerbird]

it looked pony.

Can someone please let me know what this means ?

Guess it all depends on how big a penis you want to be.
