i8 Wheels on an i3
Has anyone tried to put i8 wheels (model 625) on their i3?
I have access to a set of wheels only and was wondering how they fit. I expect that adding the i3s fender flares is a must. I am wondering about any inside rubbing on the chassis or suspension parts. |

I've heard of this being mentioned on i3 Facebook groups but not seen it actually done yet. If you have access to the wheels why not give it a try?

Had problems with tire rubbing when test-fitting i8 wheels on a i3S in the rear.

I know that the 625's are wider (7.5" and 8.5") than other i8 wheels. I think there is a 7" version with a 7.5" rear. Those might work with the right offset. Did you try the 625's on the i3S or a different model? |
