15x8 et-27 possible on e30?

[Logan]

I'm wanting to put axis racer x's on the e30. They are 15x8 et -27 I was thinking 175/50's and stupid camber.

Possible?

I know et0 setups are good in the back, and poke pretty damn good up front.

Hopefully flares will not be necessary...

It will fit! :rofl

Idk bud, that'd be some serious fucking pokage. I don't think you'd be able to do it without flares, even with a shitload of camber. Could definitely be sick though.

[Logan]

The plan is a shit load of camber....

I'm thinking about buying one, along with a single 175/50 and If it doesn't work, I will turn it into a show piece or something lol.

I'm not afraid to run flares, it's just that I find flared setup's kinda void tight stance...


4 door e30, slammed on the ground, cambered like hell, oil cooler, wood grain, bubble shift knob, and a subway ring dragging the ground...

I would check out the body work CamberSC is doing, without flares, per se.

Its possible in the rear, but pretty damn hard. Not gonna happen in the front.

This is a 16x7 et-15 with quite a large roll

And a 16x7 et10 in the front

These pics make it look a lot easier to fit than I thought. Make it happen with the stupid camber.

[Digitalwave]

Do it, but not with flat lipped $150 replica rims.

[B Rod]

I'm interested to see where this goes.

This makes me wonder how im going to fit 16x9 +8 and 16x10 +8 on my E30....:rofl

Camber.

[notloEnuf]

Camber.

Oh you mean waisted tires.

I will be making them fit without grotesque amounts of camber.

[Logan]

uh. I'm getting those wheels because I like them. Not because they are "replica" or "flat-lipped". Nobody on the streets will care! :stickoutt

I have had all kinds of rare wheels, that are easily worth 2k+, and honestly, I'm over it. I just get what I like and be done with it. :D:D I think they look sick :D

I can't wait to see the camber I'm going to have to pull to make these beasties fit :rofl

[the dingo]

really interested to see the outcome.

i **** quoting pictures but this damn well proves it can be done. you can easily squeeze that extra inch in there especially with 175's (which are a bitch to get in canada BTW) i run 195/50's with my 15x8's, the lip sits flush with the arch (no poke) and it works. even if you had .5" of poke, you have .5" of stretch amirite?

and wahts wrong with reverse lips? i'm a fan. work equip's look way better than the knockoff's, but for the price difference, its passable.

:rolleyes

Camber looks sick and serves a purpose on a stanced car

[notloEnuf]

if you can achieve stance -camber, that is how to be, am i saying i wont have camber no, just not an excess amount like i see on some cars.

[grippymonkey]

You can make it fit... the homey runs 16x9 +15 with a 25 and 30mm adaptor on. Camber and pulling... he drifts it regularly also. He runs a thicker tire also.

A 195 stretched would be sufficient... a 175 is kinda stupid on an E30

^Jeremials car? Yeah, i see it alot, it pokes to much. Too much for my taste and as i recall hes running flipped IE plates or similar which makes around fucking 6 degrees of camber. And it still pokes like an inch.

Just sayin


Also 15x8 et15 is pretty common without running into too many problems. do a 195 and 205. But the front isnt going to bolt on as Byron said

camber doesnt ruin tires. camber with your toe at ANYTHING but 0 is bad.

get your toe dialed in and you will be keeping tires longer

i ran -6 on my bmw
