Will These Wheels & Tires Rub?

[Hites]

i have a 94 325is and i was wondering if 17x8 et35 rondell 63's wrapped in 245/40-17 kumho ecsta supras would rub. if they would, where at? thx

[bigred318]

they should fit pretty good.. if you are lowered there is a pretty good chance you might run around corners... this being of course in the front of your car when you turn.. hope that helps

don't think u should have a prob!!

[mmclaren]

from my experiences should be fine

[robbins6103]

no they will not...you said your rim is 17x8 and those tires are 245's? Those tires are too wide for the rim, you need 225/40/17ZR....

i have 245's on my 17x7 front wheels on my sc400 right now. they fit.

shouldnt have a problem, unless suspension work has been done...
im running 18x8's on my car with 1.5 inch drop and 225's on...no rubbing at all, even with 4 people in the car...

i was thinking about getting tokico shocks and springs. the suspension would be stiffer, but the ride height would be dropped 1.25". is that too much of a drop?

buy konig or bilstein.

ok, why?

[SpeedInfusion]

pick up the UUC Stage 3 or even 4!

dont mean to jack the thread, but whats the widest tire i can run on an 18inch wheel before running into problems? i'm talking stock height and suspension, front and rear. i'm getting 18's soon and want some big tires. i'll roll the fenders if need be as well.

[RedlinedRU]

WTF? I rub badly and all i have is 17" countors. just be careful what you get. i got to get the fenders rolled and honestly I don't know if that will give me enough space.

[robbins6103]

Redlined, what are is the offset on those wheels, that might be your problem because I have 18's all around and no rubbing what so ever.

[RedlinedRU]

not sure. i got them from a private owner. can i get them trimmed or something...........rrrrggghhh.
