NEW Wheels!

[TurboHellrot]

I have not collected them yet, but I sold my BBS RCs the other day and needed new rims. Need to look for tires, any suggetions? they ate 18X8.5 and going on a Turbo'ed '96 328is

Will 245s give me the proper amount of stretch?
You read it correct, Turbo 328is. I will be putting the build thread up soon. Got a little more work to do i.e. getting the motor in the car. I will get the parts list together and put some stuff up.

[dinanm3atl]

No. There will be hardly any stretch if any at all.

I was saying 245s because running something super skinny, just to stretch and slam kind of defeats the purpose of putting a turbo on your car. In my opinion.

[TurboHellrot]

yeah, i agree, gotta keep the rubber on the road. the reason why i was asking was because my old wheels were 7.5" wide and I had 245s on them

It will be pretty square on the 8.5" which should make the ride nice and enjoyable. Love the couple of e36 turbos I have driven. mmmmmm

Stretch + Turbo = looks sick, fast (after you get traction though ). Win in my book

245's wont stretch, but will help get your power down. 8.5 is too narrow of a wheel to stretch and turbo. need a 10+ so you can stretch with some wider tires

That was my point.

[SeanDub]

I didn't disagree with you.
