  • E46: et20 rear - non M model.

    Hi, i've seen some alloys i want but they are the following spec: (will be going on a 320cd se & soon to be lowered on coilovers)

    18x8.5 et40 front and 18x9.5 et20 rear

    I don't mind putting stretched tyres on, (I am a previous vw/dub owner)

    What tyre size would i go for to make this work?
    215/40 fronts?
    225/35 rears?
    or 215 all round?

    But i would like to know much et20 would stick out? anyone made this spec work on a none M model? Pics would be great if anyone has.

    Thanks

    well on an e46 you can just go with 225-40-18 in the rear it will give you a pretty good look. I ran a 225-40-18 17et 18x9 for my rear with my old setup.

                For comparison, Heres my 19x9.5, +16 Rear on 225/35/19's.. still dialing in everything..







                so you'll be fine..
