Re: 225.55.15 tyres

["jim,marion,chaz" <bmdubau@xxxxxxxxx>]

There has been discussion about the 225.55.15 tyre and wheel size.  I hav=
e  a 94 325is sport suspension with that same setup and have been trying =
to decide if I should go to a 16 or even 17 wheel.  I currently run 2-3 =
tracks per year and dont care if the street ride is a little more harder =
however I dont want any tramling nor do I want to change springs or shock=
s at present time.  What size 16 (6.5, 7,7.5or 8) will fit without rubbin=
g or rolling the fenders and with what size rubber?  And, which 17 will =
fit, if any?  Is it better to try to find wheels off a 328 or M3 that wou=
ld fit or to buy after market wheels?  I found some 17's (the five split =
spoke) off a wrecked M3 which I liked but question the size factor.  Most=
 aftermarket cast wheels that i have looked at do not appeal and the forg=
ed kind at $500 per wheel is too much money.
Assistant is much appreciated

thanks Jim  bmdubau@domain.elided
