WHeel fitment question

[RobbyH]

I did a search but couldn't find the answer

Wheels are 17x8.5 and offset is ET 45. Wil these wheels fit a 93 325iS with stock suspension? I am concerned with the width and the large offset

Thanks

you should have no problems. Its the lower offsets that get you into trouble(in a good way). And besides, stock suspension you can fit 4x4 tires on there lol...

17x8.5 45 offset is stock rear size for the e36 M3.
You won't have any issues man.

I wasn't too worried about the rears - it was the fronts I was concerned about. Glad to know they will work

thanks all

I purchased the wheels and got them home. They do NOT fit on the front as they hit the struts - even without tires mounted. The rears are fine but the fronts will not work

Just so I don't open up another thread here, will e34 wheels (approx et 13) with 205/65/15's fit e36's?

I have someone interested in my wheels but he drives an e36.

Thank you!

I believe you can just run a small spacer to get them to clear the struts

et 13 is pretty damn low

The wheels are SO small though and so are the tires. it would have to fit wouldn't it?

205/65? those are huge as hell
if youre low might need some fender modding but nothin wrong with that
