R56 Wheel Fitment Questions
Wheel Fitment Questions
Hey guys, been lurking for some time and doing research. I'm looking at getting Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 gloss black in 17x7, but contemplating getting ET +30. I will be using 205/45/17 Hankook V12s and am currently lowered on Swift Springs. Will I rub with +30?
Measuring, everything seems to fly. Reading up on the forum of how people fit 17x8 +38 and 235/40/17, I should have 4mm more room to the fender with 17x7 +30 with 205/45/17. If anyone has experience with the fitment I am going for, please verify that I will clear.
Thanks!

Time to pull out your tape measure and check for yourself:
In going from the OEM 7" wide wheel @ 48mm, to a 7" wide wheel @ 30mm, it means the wheel face it come out (away from center of vehicle) 18mm [11/16"].
Since you're not increasing tire size, you should be fine except overall.

Do you guys have 17"x8" wheels? How is the ride quality?
I was worried with going with that width, the added weight might degrade the ride quality, as the MC, not MCS or JCW would not necessarily benefit from the added tread.
