Thread: Low off set's

I've Been looking @ alot of E30's I love the low-offset and wide tire combos they do.I saw a few B13's with 16x8...with 20ish off-sets I would like to would love 16x8 but the manufacture doesn't make that size so, will 16x9 be possible on a b13?

These are the wheels I'm looking into replace my 17x7 Konig Imagines!

Raderweks P-90 16x9
Rderwerks - Wheels

ESM Wheels BBS RS knockoffs 16x9 (avaliable in March '09)
ESM Wheels - Product Number ESM-002

Remembering if the wheel is E30 specific the center bore may be to small for a B13 ... ( I went through this with the TR Motorsports wheels ..)

As far as a 16x9 +20 fitting ... it will go on , but its going to hang out a bunch ... and if your car is low ... your going to have fender rubbing issues unless you do something to prevent it ...

never seen those knock offs before. First one looks like a DZ exclusive knock off. Nice wheels none the less...16x9 et15 would definitely give you way to much poke. I think a safe offset for a classic in a 16x9 would be et30 not 100% on that b/c I don't recall it ever being done. I have a set of 16x9 et30's that I just sold to a guy who will be throwing it on a classic. We'll soon find out

They fit perfect on the egg. you can go as low as et15 in the rear in a 16x9. Ask me how I know

haha I saw your egg KdubL and with teh 16x9 thats the look I want to achieve! I guess I'm on a 16x8 et20-et30 Misson BBS RS knock off wheel

15x8 +20s on cory's classic

imo the rear is PERFECT but the fronts could come in a bit like a +30. He had to roll and pull the fenders a lot to get this car to drive without rubbing at this ride height. Im excited to see his car when he brings the front end down.

On my car (nx) however, they fit perfect with no rubbing issues at all and seemed to fill the fenders better without such a poke up front. I think the nx's fenders flare a bit more than the classics. but i still think staggered is the way to go, like a +0 or +15 in the rear.(nx)


oh yeah and LOW OFFSET FTW

i think a 16x7 with a +20 would look great on a classic as well, if those bbs knock offs come in that size.

Ya the BBS knock off's come in 16x7.5 +20 .....I wish 16x8 I would be all over it...but I want a big PHAT BUBBA GUMP lip!
