Which Wheels

[andrewbuch]

Guys I might have a choice of 2 sets of wheels.

Both 15 Inch (205/60/15)

The E36 mags (front in Pic) are 7j 15inch and the E46 (back in pic) say 6.5j 15 What is the difference of the 2?

the e46 rim is 0.5" narrower than the e36

 

[andrewbuch]

what difference will that make?

and which mag do you think is better looking on my car?

i say stick with the original E36 rim..

 

[kabal]

shouldnt make that much different one a 205 I guess, but 6.5 is pretty thin

I prefer the e36 wheel, it looks bigger

Stick with the e36 rims AB. Personally those E46 rims wasn't my favorit. The e46 rim ran a 195 tyre.

Cool guys, I just have them on for the skidpan for sunday so that I can trash these crappy toyo tires & save my yokis

Those have 205/65/15 tires on them and the front ones on the E46 have 205/60/15 on them.

Im also not such a fan of these E46 wheels but they are better than the ones that came on the car (we have 1 as the spare) those ones with small circle holes in them..

Just took my car for a spin with those wheels & was sideways pretty easy so looking forward to sunday

My ideal Rim would be the ones Jandre has in his sig..
