Default 16x7 +32, 16x7.5 +30 - EM1

Am I going to run into trouble running these on my EM1? Obviously I'm concerned about the rears.. I think the 16x7 +32 will be fine in the front. Right now I'm on 205/40/16s.

I heard I may run into issues with the rear trailing arm. I was going to try to slap them on before work tomorrow, but if it's going to be an ordeal, I'll wait for the weekend.

I don't have my fenders rolled, and am running static camber in the back (lowered maybe 2 inches), but close to 0 degrees in the front with a camber kit.

Thanks guys.



Here's my old setup which I think was +42.

It won't hit the rear trailing arm, but put the 7.5s on the front. You might need to roll the rear fender, I don't have much experience with EM1s. Are you re-using the same 205/40s? Add some negative camber at the front, what are you thinking running nearly zero.

The front and rear should sit perfect. I would minimally roll the fenders just the inside lip. No pulling should be needed. I'm on 16x7 +40 wheels with 205-45 tires and I am planning on putting a 10MM spacer up front and a 5MM spacer in the rear.

They fit in case anyone cares. I'm going to roll the rear lip, but I could probably get away without it.
