9J et20 on FRONT of an e36?

[Stebertt]

After searching on all the bmw forums and struggling severely, does anybody know if a 17x9 et20 would fit on the front of an e36 convertible without arch work? Ill be running between 3.5 and 5 degrees of camber. It will be a relatively low set up and i would probably use a 215/35 or a 215/40.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I've run a 17x9 with 15mm spacers making et9(ish) with a 205/40. Lips rolled flat and they sat really nice

do you think et20 could work without any arch work tho dude?

just roll your fucking fenders. what is the problem?

You're posting about camber and stretched tires and a "relatively low" setup and asking this on a forum called STANCEworks. Most of us roll,pull etc.

You're always going to have to fuck with your fenders to run a wide wheel.

Thats a easy fit. This is 18x9 et6 square.

Possibly, with the right tyre. When I test fitted mine my arches were rolled flat without any pull (looks oem) and I still had a lot of room to play with.

On my daily I run 17x8 et24 with a 205/40 with standard arches and it doesn't rub. It's all about trial and error though man, try and get some worn tyres from a shop in the sizes you want and see what fits

i have run those specs on an e36 sedan with a 15mm spacer(final et +5), -1.5* camber and 205/40/17s. there is no need for the excessive camber.
