Will 9Jx16 et15 wheels fit to e36 compact without widen side wings??

And if it will, what tyres should I put on them ?

any advices.... :)

thanks

its ok! its a normal combination, there should be no big problem. i would buy 215/40 tires, they look very fat but are good to drive (not too extreme).

wer vögeln will muss freundlich sein

I Think its not okay without widen sidewings! Especially in the rearside of the car!

so i don't know :D Will it fit or not without widen the side wings ???? :D
I have thought about 215x45x16 tyres... but 40 like you said look also fat and cool :D

This car will be used in Poland and here we don't have good roads :D so I have fear about my little baby (my car). And my actuall wheels ar to small (15) so I want to buy wider and bigger. but will they fit without widen ??

please help me !!

Thank you !! :)

Did you lower your car? If so, how much? My car is lowered 60/40, for my old 9x16 ET15 rims I had to widen the side wings like 3cm in the back. Watch my Fotostory for pictures...

On the following pic you can see the back wings with my new 10x17 ET30 rims. :)

I think it will not work without problems. 9x16 ET 15 seems too much for that car.

And it doesn't matter if the car ist deeper or not. The normal (high) car at full load will go down as deep as the car with the (deeper) sport suspension. OK, you can use travel delimiters but that will not be nice driving if you use too much of it.

And I would not use 215/40 on this rims. These tires are extremly small in diameter, so your car will come deeper and drive slower (and there will be lot of space between tire and side wing). 215/45 is better.
But perfect in diameter would be 225/50 and 215/50.

I've normal suspension.

so what should I do?

I don't want to widen side wings, so what wheels and what tyres will be optimal??
And don't forget in Poland we have bad roads.

Help me !! :D

And 7,5Jx17 will fit ??

I don't know what wheels should I buy??

Please help me !!

i would say you should take 8*17! with normal suspension they fit without any problems.
i have 8*17 et30, but a 70-20suspension and only had to (kanten anlegen!?)
with 9*16 your car will be to deep if your streets are really that bad, as you said!

Now I have 7jx15 185/65/15 and want to buy new bigger one... and I don't know how big (16 or 17 big, 7,5 , 8 , 9 wide, what et, what tyres)??

And I don't want to widen side wings.

take 8*17 et+-30 with 215/45tyres. that would be the best compromise for your needs!
