Will these fit my e46 coupe?

soul rebel · 01-07-2013, 08:50 PM

18x8.5 et 23 non staggered.

My tires will be 215/35/18

Thanks

i wouldn't.

Wheel specs are a tad aggressive, but nothing too over the top. Tire sidewall height though is short in my opinion.

That sizing doesn't really seem the most ideal overall.

Car it's gonna be dropped on h&r trace in the spring. Just wanna make sure it will clear the shocks ok etc

I would drop it first , let it settle and then measure for proper fitting of tire and wheels.

The tire would definitely look stretched over a 18x8.5 wheel. What wheels did you get?

They could look pretty good if your car was on some springs or coilovers. Maybe go with a 40 sidewall tho?

The car is getting dropped and these wheels in the spring. Ideally I want my car to look close to this... (Don't know who's car this is, but it's perfect)

Only probably is that car ^ is an m3 so It can handle those offsets just fine

Where did you find style 95 replicas? Lmk I need a pair

soul rebel · 01-13-2013, 02:03 AM

Style 5's are the same offsets, I think I'll be ok. Found them locally...
