  • E30 Offset question

    Hi guys well right now a friend of mine called me and he has someone selling a set of CCW Reps for 700 dollars there 15 by 8 in the front and 15 b 9 in the rear with a 15 offset all round now im wondering A. will they fit and B. what size wheel spacers and im going to have to run. im trying to get my car ready for H20 in sept and its gonna be my first H20 seeing that ive been in the army for the past 4 years and been stationed in texas so im pretty excited about finialy being able to make it this year.

    Get them, that's a no brainer with 15 offset. The e30s are -20 stock offset, now the spacer part is up to you.

    I'm not sure what look you're going for, so I can't tell you sizes.
    Oh yeaaaaahhh....

        Don't buy them, they'll fit but 15" is hard to pull off on an e30 without being stupid low find some 16"

          you can run a chunky tire but xxr's are so cheap you might as well just buy a brand new set of 16s unless the guy is selling them to you for like $200, theyre $408 new

            Even on a 16" wheel you need to run at least a 45 series unless the car is pretty slammed. but a 9" wheel with an ET 5 in the front and et 0 in the back will give a teeny bit of poke, thats about it.
            Beware before i triple dare you like the last kid.

                  WRONG.



                  here is my e30 on 15x8 et0 which effectively makes them about 15x9 et0.

                  my fenders are barely rolled with a 165 55, so to answer your question yes they will fit, and very well at that. Also my car is not retard low, and pulls of the 15's nicely.
