325i on style 67

michalt95 · Apr 23, 2013

Sup everyone?! :craig:

Got a 02 325i without the sport package, so it sits pretty high. I saw a couple threads on here saying that a staggered set of style 67s would not fit on a sedan. Found a decent deal on a set of staggered style 67s so i said why not.

Front: 235/40/18
18x8 et47

Rear: 255/40/18
18x9 et26

Yes i know i need new tires!

Brought them home and decided to throw them on the car for a test fit.

Than decided to stop by my buddies house.

Than i thought might as well have some fun!.
Wouldnt mind having this fitment

flipped the car around

the tire was against the inner lip

To be honest i have thought it would have been worse. I thought that the back would stick out too much and it would not be able to tuck under the fender when the suspension cycles.

You may ask about the GoPro in the pictures above.

Thinking about some 224/40 up front and a 225 or 235/40 in the back and a roll.

they definitely do with but not with the current size tires you have. here's ryan's (gottalovethexi) 330xi on 4 m3 rears. they will look nice if done correctly, and dont get 225/45...hes on 245/35 i believe...

Thats one of the cars that inspired me to get the style 67, fell in love with it first time i saw it. I might go with a 225 for now untill i get around to work on the fenders to fit a bigger tire. To be honest i would love to go with a 245 at first however i am unable to do a roll/cut on the fender at the moment

i'd get the same tire size with what you have on the rear.

ARC510 · Jul 2, 2013

i would get 215/40 since your fronts are 8 wide only. just my opinion tho.

djnekkon · Jul 2, 2013

why people go for max stretch? shave the damm 0uarter end, then get the biggest tire you can fit there. You would've gone 245 and shaved fenders. it's not an 11" wide wheel...enjoy

michalt95 · Jul 3, 2013

There are 2 kinds of people on this forum, those whole like stretch and those who dont. Each for their own. 225 on a 9 is not an extreme stretch. I did it because i wanted to make the wheels fit without playing with the quarters too much and i think it doesn't look too bad. Roll/shave might happen later on when i lower the car.

I was thinking of putting a 225/45 in the front to get a bit more sidewall to be on the safer side with these NJ roads. However i think a 225/40 will look better and still provide enough sidewall. Just wanted to get others opinion.
