have a 88 325is 2 door, I have BBS RS wheels in with 16x9 et11 in the rear with 205/45/16 wheels mounted. Tony was able to roll the finders but they still rub whenever im going through a turn... The car is sitting on H&R E30 M3 springs and HD shocks. What are my options of fixing the rubbing problem, as it is very irritating. I talked to Tony and we thought that have a 195/45 on the rear would give the wheels more of an angle and they would not rub. Now before I go on and purchase me some new tires, I would like to know the general concesus of the E30 group here.

I'm sure Tony knows what he's talking about. 195/45 on a 9 inch wheel sounds like a great idea.

Paint the inside of your wheel wells with a bigass bright-colored sharpie or something, take it for a drive. Wherever the ink/paint rubbed off, bang it with a hammer. :)
Might sonud like a joke but that's actually what I did with my car, and after I was done I had no rubbing issues. Be careful though because you can make small dents appear on the outside, I was lucky enough to have someone experienced do this for me and my paint/fender suffered no visible damage on the outside.Comment

What is your offset?, those tires look really meaty dude. Maybe Tony is right but go to a small tire shop and get a couple of used tires in smaller sizing first, run them and then make a decision as to what will work for you.
Sorry I couldn't be of any more help.@IRON-E30 aka Edwin:DComment
