    Hi i wonder if anyone can help with wheel size

    I have fitted a CLM lock kit to my E36

    Now i have measured the distance from the tie rod to the centre line of hub and have 8"

    Does this mean i need spacers to fit alloys or just larger diameter wheels to be away from the tie rod ?

    any help would be most appreciated

    TIA

    Peter

    Lower ET wheels normally, wheel spacers give the same effect as lower ET

    This pushes the wheel further out of the arch, I use e46 wishbones and et20 wheels with modified hubs and don’t hit anything on full lock
