      i **** quoting pictures but this damn well proves it can be done. you can easily squeeze that extra inch in there especially with 175's (which are a bitch to get in canada BTW) i run 195/50's with my 15x8's, the lip sits flush with the arch (no poke) and it works. even if you had .5" of poke, you have .5" of stretch amirite?

      and wahts wrong with reverse lips? i'm a fan. work equip's look way better than the knockoff's, but for the price difference, its passable.

        I will be making them fit without grotesque amounts of camber.


        Camber looks sick and serves a purpose on a stanced car

          if you can achieve stance -camber, that is how to be, am i saying i wont have camber no, just not an excess amount like i see on some cars.

            You can make it fit... the homey runs 16x9 +15 with a 25 and 30mm adaptor on. Camber and pulling... he drifts it regularly also. He runs a thicker tire also.

            A 195 stretched would be sufficient... a 175 is kinda stupid on an E30

              ^Jeremials car? Yeah, i see it alot, it pokes to much. Too much for my taste and as i recall hes running flipped IE plates or similar which makes around fucking 6 degrees of camber. And it still pokes like an inch.

              Just sayin


              Also 15x8 et15 is pretty common without running into too many problems. do a 195 and 205. But the front isnt going to bolt on as Byron said

                I have had all kinds of rare wheels, that are easily worth 2k+, and honestly, I'm over it. I just get what I like and be done with it. I think they look sick

                I can't wait to see the camber I'm going to have to pull to make these beasties fit
                camber doesnt ruin tires. camber with your toe at ANYTHING but 0 is bad.

                get your toe dialed in and you will be keeping tires longer
