Wheel Fitment
Much data has been collected about
fitting aftermarket wheels onto E30 and E36 cars in larger sizes and in
larger widths. Additionally, there are many Java tire calculators
on the web as well, but this will serve to summarize what fits on
specific cars. These represent the largest, and best tire size
that will keep your speedometer accurate. For sizes in stock
sizes, these represent the largest tire that will fit on the stock
rims. If you have additions to this list, please feel free to email
