[330i ZHP]

did you decide

No sir, I'm still doing a little more research and hearing some opinions. My E30 has 16x8's on it with a 22 offset and it has bolt-on flares. The E36 had some 17x8s on it with an et38 set up on it and it never rubbed except for U-turning too quickly. I'm a little stuck on the ZHP. I know the rears are an et51(?) stock and they're not THAT far from the inside of the fender. Going with an et35 wheel would put it ~15mm closer to it, then tires need to be accounted for, so it should be plenty of "stance" with performance in mind, wouldn't you say?

PS- A picture of your wagon is currently the background on my computer.. So jealous.

I had 19x8.5 et 32 with 235/35 LMs on front of ZHP and 19x9.5 et 35 with 265/30

[330i ZHP]

thank you for the compliment - i promise you the LMs on the wagon will not fit your car

19x10 et 25 and 19x11 et 25

Jesus, that's outrageous. Haha. I love it, I actually started looking for wagons the day I saw yours.

Stupid question, but is there a difference in wheel-well depth between sedans and coupes/verts? I know BMW like the back of my hand having built my fair share of M5x motors and such, but I wonder if the sedans fit a wider wheel? I only ever see sedans running crazy wheels.





These are the 9.5 et40 wheels with a 5mm spacer on a sedan. He's not as low as me, but the black one is pretty close (same person, I believe). That's the set-up I'm asking about.

[330i ZHP]

a 5mm spacer will make it et35 - the same as my previous setup

supposedly coupe's have more space, verts less

Right, so in theory it fits, but I just DON'T see the room on my vert for that... I might have to go with the et35..Maybe 25? UGH.

Any close-up shots?

That is perfect besides the un-even ride height.

This guy is doing it right as far as fitment.

I know, it sits perfect. But A. He's in a sedan and B. I guarantee he doesn't drive that very hard, haha.
