Moby came with BBS rims and 225-50-15 Hoosiers R6's. Now that it has 3.0L /6 added and I have afew AX under my belt I will be looking for more rubber under the fenders.
I know zero about BBS rims. Did some web search on them and found a few different threads on them, but trying to figure out just how wide a tire I can go? The rims are all the same and are marked 68458 and 0275001. Buying wider rims is not in the budget this year, but I could get wider rubber. Attached image(s)

Garold,
Have you tried www.bbs-racing-wheels.com? There is some info there on E30 centers (16 bolt) you might find useful. Good luck! |

Garold, 2 things come to mind
1; you don't need to get different rims. The nice thing about 3-piece rims is that you can get different rim halves in order to change wheel size. 2; Tires are getting scarce in 15' sizes. The only race tire available from TireRack in 225 & 245 that match is the Hoosier R6s. Get em while you still can T.C. |
