Kinda late to the party, but here is my setup:
Front:
e36 325 front spindles/modified e36 m3 front struts to use e30 inserts
J-Stock pkg re-valved bilstein sports
GC coilovers(440f)/Camber plates
97+M3 control arms
AKG poly offset bushings
Bimmerworld E36 camber shim kit
Rear
318ti TA's
Poly bushings all around
GC (650r)springs
Wheels:
17x7 et47 330 steelies
17x8 style 44s
15x7 et30 e30 m3 weaves
The style 44s are sold, I gave the weaves to my sister for winter tires for her e36 but those fucking steelies all bent on me so i'll be running the weaves for this season untill i get enough cash flow for some contours or DS2s..With m3 brakes of course:pLeave a comment:

SSR Comp-H 17x8.5", Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Spec 235/40ZR17 all the way around. Bilstein Sports and IE Stage 3 springs, GC Camber/Caster Plates and Adjustable Links up front, IE adjusters in the back with urethane bushings in all the places that count. '99 M3 setup up front including the rack, 318ti rears. Rebuilt calipers, brass guide pins, slotted rotors, and Vorshlag 15mm spacers with 90mm studs up front, no spacers and 75mm studs in the back. I'm sure there's other stuff I'm not thinking of...
Aligned for autocross w/ light street driving as follows:
-2.3 deg camber front
-1.3 deg camber rear
1/8" toe out front
1/16" toe in rear
9.3 deg caster (I could take more out but the strut towers have to be modified a bit to allow more adjustment with the GC plates).
Anyway, it was a LOT of work to do by myself, but I'm very pleased with the results.Last edited by xer0trigger; 12-16-2009, 09:33 AM.Leave a comment:

I'm such a wheels whore :)
Staggered style 68. 245/40 in the rear don't rub and fenders still aren't rolled. Had a tiny scrape when I packed everything up for the picnic. Front 225/45 still scrapes on the inside wall at full lock.
Tires are Fuzion ZRi, incredible handling now.Last edited by Aptyp; 10-11-2009, 07:48 AM.Leave a comment:

what about considering it's the same size tire (235/40) on a 7.5" wide wheel up front and 8.5" in back? I mean technically, with the stretch won't there be less "height" on the sidewall?
matt; those are real contours I'd assume. but I don't see the ///m logo?
anyone want to buy bridgestone re050's, 225/45/17 up front 245/40/17 in back? tons of tread left, will sell cheap.Leave a comment:

I want to put my m contours on my e30. e36/m coupe setup. Currently have dsI's 7.5" all around with 235/40/17.
eagle f1 gsd3's are on ebay pretty cheap, but only in 235/40/17. i'm guessing for the rears, 8.5", I'm going to have to run a 245/35/17? or how bad would the stretch be with 235Leave a comment:

yours are on 18" wheels with a very low profile. It's an allusion... OR maybe they haven't been driven on for so long, that they've shrunk
ZING :DLeave a comment:
