    E36 16x8 Fitment Questions

    Hey guys!

    New to the forum and just have a fitment question.
    Have the opportunity to buy a set of Ronal R9’s that are 16x8 ET11. Guy says he clears them fine with coils and no fender rolling but I’ve been told that with low offset (usually under 20) you’d need the fenders rolled...

    Opinions? I am on coils as well...

    Thanks guys!

    I would definitely plan on having to modify fender lips. e38/9 ET20 is hard to fit, ET11 would be even tougher with even more limitations when it comes to tire choice.

    The tires will be at risk of hitting your outer fender lips. ET41 is stock for 7.5 to 8.5” wide wheels. ET11 would space the wheels 30mm further out from the hubs. You would not be able to run much tire. You could buy fender flares but that seems like a lot of work.
