What tires will make these rims fit my E36

[paulrhein]

I am told these wheels came off a 740 or an Alpina. I do know the rims are 16X8" and I was told the offset was ET23.

I tried to have my current tires (225/50 16) mounted on these rims. The fronts were fine but the rears would rub everytime I made a turn or there was a bump in the road. My current rims are stock 16X7". The mechanic who did the work said 740 rims were pushing my sidewalls out.

I am willing to have the fenders rolled if necessary. I wonder what size tires would fit under the car and still look good.

Please advise me as to what I have to do to make them fit?

205 / 215 f I were u.

should be good with a 215/40

might need to roll fenders a bit. are you lowered?

[paulrhein]

No I don't think I am lowered? I wondered about that. roll the fenders and 215/45

but thats gonna look pretty silly if the car is stock height

if these are et23 215 still might barely rub in the rear if you have stock suspension..
