Wheel fitment HELP Please

Post by squiggle » Mon Apr 28, 2014 10:12 pm

Does anyone know if this wheel size will fit my Z4 coupe E86 2006 19x8.5 ET32 front & 19x10 ET25 (these are from a E46 M3) It has also lowered been lowered with Eibach 30mm front & 20mm rear springs.

Any help would be much appreciated. :thumbsup:

I don,t think the front,s would be an issue but the rear,s with the lowered suspension may result in a meeting of rubber & arch liner :cry:
Tyre choice may of course help the situation ?

One of the guys Marius that used to be on the forum had 19x 10 with ET 24 on the rears. The car was originally lowered 30 - 40 mm but he eventually went to coil overs.

Loads of Pics here. He stretched some 235/35/19 rubber on

They are pretty out there. I've just bought a set and plan to go the same way.
