        I wouldn't go larger than a 16'' if you aren't very low, and always a taller tire. Undersized tires are horrible at every height.

          Sound advice, that's what I've been observing thus far. And I'm definitely liking the meaty tire for a functional height

            Thanks for the kind words!

                Really nice looking!

                I guess the formula is definitely 15" or 16" with decent sized tires

                    This is about an inch overall undersize at 225/45/15, on H&R race springs, the wheel gap is noticeable. The car is M10 powered, so lighter than the average E30. I want 225/50 R-comps, that will give me about an inch oversize and it will sit amazing.

                    Point is, if undersize give me that much gap on race springs, it will be horrid on sport springs.

                      Sorry for the crappy instagram pictures





                      This is mine on H&R Sports with Borbet A's 16x7.5s ET20 205/50/16. I think it looks pretty good, I'm there could be less wheel gap but I have no rubbing or clearance issues what so ever. I'm also running M3 CABS now.

                      I'll get a better picture tomorrow and post back.

                            H&R sports with e90 drop hats, wheels are Ronal LS, 15x7.5 with a undersized tires, 205/50. I would like to find some 225/50 eventually but I had these tires already.

                              How could I forget about LS's? Those look really clean, thats the look I think I'm chasing
