of performance ? You can fit 19's on that car with 235/35/19

Will ET35 BBS RX 8x18 and 8.5x18 inch rims, with 215/40-18 and 235/35-18 tires, fit a '92 BMW 320i saloon without mods?

Is this a good setup?

Thanks

They do make a 17X8 RX at 299.00 per wheel but they do not show a larger wheel for the rear. You would be much better off with a 225/45R17 all the way around on the car. If I can help let me know. Thank you

 I am saying this beacause it fits without any modification and the same tire all the way around will reduce the understeer. So yes it will improve the handling. If you want to roll the fenders or add more negative camber you can use the 235/35R18 with the 18X8 at 299.00 each. My last post said 17X8 but I meant 18X8. Sorry.
Jim
