pulling off 16s on an e36

[Oxer]

Strive for this, its damn near perfect.

thats ballsy. thats pretty damn low

[hi its me alec]

I think 16s are best for e30, 17s for e36, 18s for e46, etc. I prefer narrower 16s (no poke) with nice-sized tires, looking like they're all stuffed in the wheel wells.

I think i pull em off fairly well.

I agree. Sweetness.

Exactly, i made the dumb decision to use 205/40s on my mine.
195/50s look great imo on a 16x8 or 16x8.5

Actually now thinking back - I think the front tires on my dakar in that one pic before I sold BBS were thick 205/50 Bridgestones. So def fit - didn't rub really at all. BEEF

I like smaller wheels and more beefy tires in general than wheels too big and stretched rubber bands. 16s can def look sweet, just gotta be low.

i think the 16inch tyre are same price with the 17's.....

^this guy knows what's up. For now you just need some beefier tires, like some 205/50's. then down the road widen them if you want.

Here is my 95 Dakar on BBS RS 211 16x8 et11 w 215/45/16 DZ101s. Fit well, didn't rub much (rolled and lil pull in back).

What was your offset before those lips?

I had smaller lips and barrels (16x7 et+11), but the fronts are now 16x8.5 et-8, rears are 16x9.5 et+4 i believe.

^ those fronts cry out for bigger lips.

That is what these are for

[ilikebrownies]

I think poke looks like garbage most times. Evil pandas car is my "inspiration" i thought he was on 17s but now i know. Definitely the best looking on 16s by far imo.

^ those fronts cry out for bigger lips. I still think the poke is necessary to make it work on 16. both these cars are static that i've posted.
