How much wider could I go?

[Steinke]

OK I really dont think the current wheels fit the e21 well.
I want a set of Black steelies and want to go 10inch in the rear and 9 inch up front. Do you guys think I could shove another 2 inches back there?:eyebrows



Current set up is 16X8 et0

This is the wheel. Except wider of course. The wheel is et19 at 8 inches wide.
what would be the ET at 9 and 10 inches?

et 6 and -6 at 9 and 10. :)

[Steinke]

thank you sr.!!!!

You think I can get them to fit in there?

Why not ask the guy who's doin the wheels? He might widen from the inside, or from the inside and the outside, which would affect offset greatly.

it looks like you got room to spare. But like Sean said ask the steelie guy about offset/backspacing

[Steinke]

good point! thanks guys

I roll 15x8.5 ET0 up front and 15x9 ET -12 out back. With those flares you can at least do what I did. Since you're posting this on SW I'm assuming you are not opposed to a little stretchy.

[Steinke]

Not opposed to a little stretch at all

Good to hear :)

If you have some room on the inside as well I wouldn't be surprised if you could fit something larger than 10" in the rear.
