VR TE-37 time attack fitment?

devilock · 11-20-2006, 11:18 PM

hi i just registered not long ago, anyways after many years in the 'JDM' scene i am finally ready to make the leap into the euro scene...but i am not quite ready to give up my roots so to speak. right now im currently in the market for a crimson red e90 sedan and i really want to put these wheels on there. however i am unaware of the e90 fitment. this wheel is 19x8.5 5x120 with a 30mm offset. for the rear they offer 9.0,9.5,10, and 10.5 with a 25mm offset. would i have any issue with these wheels? again i have no idea on the e90 fitment so hopefully you guys can help.

pm HRC (danny) for these rims, danny can hook you up with volk rims if i'm not mistaken
anyway the fronts will fit, thats 19x8.5 5x120 with 30mm offset
for the rear you should go with 9.5 or 10, 25mm offset will fit fine
but 9.5 is the safest, i think you wont rub if you go with 10 and 25mm offset but there's a risk. tires with rounder side walls such as falkens will help
i'm no expert but so far this is what i've learnt, so hope this helps
oh and welcome to the board

i'll tell you next week how it fits on an e92 with 19x10.5 et25 I'm guaranteeing that for the e92, i'll need to roll the rear fenders and get some forgiving tires.

On the other hand, there is a member here with an e90 who has been able to fit 19x10 et20 rears on the car.. there was rubbing, but its not much of a problem anymore? I believe they're BBS CH's.

I say get them!

Good luck - those are sweet wheels! I'm a fan of any & all lightweight wheels
