got something new in the works...haha

I used to run 9.5x17 with 225/35 on my old sedan... Even that was a pretty decent stretch... 205 is getting pretty extreme.

heres some ooolld pics of my friends old 17x9.5s with 205/40/17 falken 512s

nice! i think im sticking with 205s..will shops have trouble mounting these?

[Morbid]

I think 205's would look too skinny under an e46.

Here are my 215/40's on 9.5 ... not the greatest angle


and 205/40 on 8.5 on the front

??

id say 215/40's should work.
i have those up front on my 10's and i think they would better suit 9.5s

also depends what tire.
i have three different brands on right now
fusion stretched way to weird but might look better on a 9.5.
yokohama's stretched perfect
and my federals in the rear dont stretch thatr great. thats why i had to raise my car lol

:shhh maybe lol...your going to have to wait and see...but im kinda leaning towards 205s since i already have them..but 215s look good also..hmm...205s front 215s rear????

[Dubmd]

no dont do that.
if anything do 215/40s up front and 205/40s in the rear
so you can poke more without rubbing

[00bmw323]

lol that would look funny...i think ima do 205s all around....do you have any close ups of your wheels/fitment?

[Dubmd]

it wont look weird at all if you poke the rear out more than the front.

heres som pics
215/40 front yokohama
215/45 rear federal

i love this stretch imo

doesnt stretch nearly as much.

my goal is to get 225/40's up front and 215/40s in the rear
