I am thinking of getting new wheels. VarrsToen TE reps to be exact, especially right now since they are running a sale for the rest of the month.

I am currently running
F:17x8 +22
R:17x9 +26

Another E36 that is at the same height that I will be at once I install my coilovers (aka my old car's height) to be at is running
F: 17x8 +20
R: 17x10.5 +52

I'm trying to run 17x9 fronts and 17x9.5 rear. or 17x9.5 squared if possible. I am having trouble seeing how this converts.
The offsets that Varrstoen offers in these sizes are +12, +22, +30
For the front I'm guessing I'm gonna have to run the 17x9 +30
What offset in 17x9.5 would be equivalent or near 17x10.5 +52.

I hope this made sense.

You'll want to run +30, and pull your rears a little.

OR

Depending on beamer suspension.. (which I have no clue on) More camber or whatever, to run the other offsets. It's really up to you. I'm sure you can make them all fit.

that 1010tires offset calculator is a very useful tool to use! If all else fails rub to fit + max camber!

Thanks for the great links guise.
I decided to spend my money elsewhere but these will definitely come in handy in the future.
