Flush look for E36

[XXX]

Hi after my research, I know that 18"x 8.5jj rims with 225/40/18 tires can give a nice looks.

Is it possible and how do I get the same good look with 17" rims and tires? without spacers preferbly

With customed offsets, you can have a flushed look without spacers.

BBS RK, 17"x8", on 225 tires... I think tat's the better mean between performance(8kg per rims), looks (looks flush to me, I just need to lower a bit) and price (wut else? tyre price lo.. haha )

there are quite a number of e36ers out there on 17 x 8J. if your's is a sedan, it will flush nicely. if your's is a coupe, the rear wheel arch will be a bit protruding. 225/45/17 will be the tire size. hope this helps.

Some photos up, feel it looks rather Ah Pek now... Think its Style89 on 225/45/17, car pretty low, 1 1/2 finger
also thinking of changing to a set of Black Rims with chrome lips and studds to make it look more sporty, and dont have to always feel sick of the brake dust

Whole Car

Rear Wheel Arc ( rims too deep in)

Front
