    BMW style 42s on 92 325is

    Hey guys/girls I'm just looking for some concrete info here. May pic up a set of style 42s for around $400, but I am not sure of fitment with them. Some seem to say they rub with a tire bigger than a 215. I would like to run a 235-245/40 on the car since I plan on tracking it. The suspension set up is bilstien m3 shocks and h&r lowering springs. Will they fit with that tire size, or would they rub?The wheels are 17x8 et20

    Thanks!

    They dont fit the E36 well. Search for style 5 and you can read more about the problem. If you want to track the car buy wheels that fit with the size rubber you want for the track.
