Pic Req: 9.5x17 ET13 on an E36.

[Dr.AK]

Yeah... wondering how this looks in the rear of an E36. What is needed to run this? Rolling obviously, but is that all or does one need to pull as well?

Hope i'm in the right section for this.:shifty

Some 215/40s, roll, camber and stiff springs. That would poke a smidge more than my 17x10 +30s I believe.

Definitely doable with a roll.

10mm more poke to be exact. Not necessarily a "smidge". :)

Dr.Ak- find pics of 17x10 et20, a much more common fitment for the rear of an e36. It will fit the same.

Thanks guys

Looking for 225 on these, as that would give the least trouble with the TÜV. :shifty

You run 235s on the 10s, right?

According to my tire calculating tool, the 9.5s should poke about 10mm more than your setup... According to your pic that would sit completely flush. I had feared uber-poke that required pulling...

So it's def. doable, then without pulling and only rolling?

Do you have any? I'll start looking now.

[M.Burroughs]

I have none. BeastinM3's rears are 17x10 et20, and TJs rear RSIIs were 18x10 et20.

That gives me great hope as I just looked at their cars.

I just had a "D'oh" moment right there, I think I still have some 15mm spacers in the garage... my current wheels are 9.5x17 ET30... I can see for myself what needs to be done.

Sometimes, I am dumb.

But I think I can make this work with rolled fenders and a bit of camber. Once I've tested with the spacers, I'll know for sure. God damn it, I hope to god I can make this fit. Then I def. know what wheels to get for next season.

It's not that crazy of a fitment, its definitely doable, you just need a good roll/pull.

Yeah, it's just that I don't want to do too extreme fender work (i.e. no real pulling) because I don't want to loose the slight edge in the fender. I don't really like it when that is pulled smooth. Know what I mean?

Dang I thought it was somewhere between 17x10 et30 and 17x10et20. I didn't do any math.:(

But in that case:
17x10 et20- Rolled

Add 10mm of poke.
