E30 Kid · 03-03-2010, 05:44 PM

i wanna run, 16X9 in the front and 16X9.5 (or 10's) in the rear of my E30 on diamond racing rims, but im not sure of the offset i should run???

i was thinking 0 offset?

+10 front and rear.

E30 Kid · 03-04-2010, 05:14 PM

both +10??? i was thinking about stretch tire tho??

Yeah, both. The wider width in the rear will make the stance equal.

Of course stretch, the wheels will be poking out the side of the car. 205/45 front and 225/40 rear with rolled fenders in the rear.

well this might all change now, cause diamond racing doesnt make 16inch, so im going with 15 inch, so i wanna go with a high series tire maybe fill in the wheel gab....

my fronts and rears are rolled already, plus i have coilovers so i can adjust if necessary

15s are a little tougher, because tire choices get more limited. 205/50 F and 215/45 R would work, but you may have trouble finding matching tires.

what BACK spacing should i get?

15X8 1" to 5 1/2 " ?????
15X10 1" to 7" ?????

Well, I am often wrong so take this with a grain of salt.

For 0 offset, divide the width by 2... 15x8= 4 inch backspacing?

15x10=5 inch backspacing?

Then plus or minus whichever direction you feel like going in.
