  • E36 M3 17x8.5 et 33 /9.5 et 22 tire help

    I know E36 is one off the most car that you can find information for tire fitment etc...I just want your opinion though!

    Front wheel 17x8.5 et 33 (will add spacer probably 20mm) I can take sugestion if you thing about other spacer size...

    Rear wheel 17 x 9.5 et 22

    I think about 205/40 for the front and 215/40 for the rear,
    or 215/40 front and 225/40 rear

    I don't want to pull fender, Just a little roll

    soo what you think?

    I am in the process of fitting 17x9 et 17 front 215 40 and 17x9.5 et13 225 40. So far its looking like it will fit great with some camber and a roll. These specs have produced an ok but not aggressive stretch. obviously depending on the fitment you are looking for you should choose accordingly I hope this helps.

    215 40 17 on the 9, sorry this is the only pic I have right now.



    225 40 17 on 9.5

      Where the f*ck are you guys pulling these 225/40s from? I can't find these anywhere.

      Anyways: I'd go with 205/40 and 215/40. If you add some more camber up front (adjustable strut bearings or so) the fronts should fit with stock fenders actually. Rear will need a roll, maybe a very slight pull.

        Nitto nt 555 extreme comes in a 225 40 17 but that is the only street tire I found when I was looking. The 215/40 wont be much of a stretch your front so draks suggestion to go with the 205/40 215/40 combo is probably your best move.

              Falken 512 is good too.

              With a 20mm front spacer those should fit just about perfect.
