    Please advise which tire w/ Ronal LS and Apex 60mm springs?

    Wassup guys/gals. I'm brand spankin' new here so perhaps anyone can help:

    I've got 15x7.5 Ronal LS wheels (will be getting them in 2 mos) and Apex springs with a 60mm (2.25") drop rate F + R. I've got Bilsteins shocks and basically upgraded all front and rear bushings and rear camber kit. I don't race or autocross and my 91 318ic is my pleasure/weekend ride. So, without zero rubbing and problems, which tire will work? I was told 205/55 would be the max.

    I really like the Euro style by going staggered sizes so I was thinking 215/55 up front and 225/50 at the rear. Please advise. Thanks!

    if you tried to go staggered with 215/55 up front, your front tires would be taller than your rears. I'd just go 205/55 all around, that should work fine.

      thanks. but since i have an even drop all around and the rear fender arches are a bit lower than the front then "the look" should be balanced with shorter tires at the rear? but i guess it's better to be safe than sorry. thanks again.
