I need to know if Beyern Wheel - Mesh Style - 17" x 8" and Beyern Wheel - Mesh Style - 18" x 9.5" - Rear Only will work on my car.I have Bilstein Sport Shocks and Bavarian Autosport Performance Springs.


Is 18" x 9.5" Rear Only and 17" x 8" front even something I should be doing or do I want both front and back to be 17" x 8".

go for the 17x8 if you don't want any fender rubbing issues.

the 18x9.5 are too wide for an e36. you can make them fit but it will be easier to just go with the 17s IMO.

i always like the idea of having wider tires at the rear for looks. 225s are not too bad.

I have TSW Mondello with 18x8 in the front and 18x9 rear I think the rear is a 45 offset though test fit was ok but with tires I have less than a half inch clearance between the fender and the body leaving very little room for flex in cornering. Also running the Eibach lowering set with springs and struts with full eurothane, still give a little rub if I load up the family

And same size tires and wheels all the way around makes for easier (read: possible) rotating of tires.
