Tire spec help with esm 002r's?

[LivintheDream]

Hey guys,

Just ordered a set of esm 002r's for my e30. Specs of wheels are 16x9 et15, and 16x8 et20. I need to order tires next and was curious as to what you guys would recommend? I have my fenders rolled already.

Thanks bros

Are you lowered already? If so, how much?

Im running 205/40s and 215/40s on my 8 and 9x16 Porsche C2. Tires are Falken 912. It's not a whole lotta stretch but i chose these due to legal issues.

If you want them stretched get 195/40s for the fronts and 205/40s in the back!

Anyways, here's a shot of the rears





Last year i ran 215/35s on 8x16s on all corners. Not sure if you guys get this tire size in the US though..



In my opinion too low profile that left me with a ridicolous wheel gap and little ground clearance. Additionally they were really uncomfortable compared to the 40 series tires..

We test fitted one of my rear wheels on my neighbour's E30. They're 9x16 ET 7,3. Car's not dumpd, just sitting on a H&R 60/40 cup kit...
