Wheel Size?

achal · 07-06-2006, 01:32 PM

Hi,

What is widest wheel can go on a 2006 325i(without sports package) in front and rear.

I know wide wheels looks really sexy on bmw's but how wide I can go??

I am new so please help me with u r input....

And also what is biggest size wheel I can fit on my 325i (without sports package).

I was thinking 19'' with 8.5 front and 9.5 rear

Thanx

Move to tire and wheel section?

my specs:

235/35/20 - 20x8.5
275/30/20 - 20x10

*without a dropped....your ride would look kind of silly - that's just my opinion

did u get it dropped......

So u can have 10'' in the back on a 19'' wheel...cause 20'' gets very expensive...

can I get 19'' wheel with 10'' width..????

Thanx

Say Hunter, when you get your LMs would you mind weighing them with the tires on? I'm curious to see how much they weigh as BBS seems to make super lightweight wheels.

I'm running 235/35/19F and 265/30/19R

No rubbing at all, although I will be lowering the car, I'm just not
sure if to go with just springs or coilovers.

you can find info about offsets under search. this topic has been talked about a lot so you ll be able to find tons of information. so just go to search "offsets"

Pretender · 07-09-2006, 01:14 PM

Stick with these and you'll be safe. Quick reference:

8.5" front: 35mm-40mm offset, 235/35/19 or 245/35/19
9.5" rear: 30mm - 39mm offset, 275/35/19
10" rear: 35mm offset, 285/35/19

if your riding on a non-sport suspension, you should seriously consider a drop...
