    Not saying it couldn't do without some different suspension, some euro bumpers, and maybe some E30 baskets or 15" RA's. IMO, cars like this or this trounce whatever that guy did to his E21 in the OP.

    I've had 3 e21's, two of them Euro 323 (1 Baur), they all had that same camber in the rear, they were all stock suspensions. My E30 M3 seems to have much less.

    It looks clean atleast.

    I just have no idea wtf "splay" is or why he's using that term instead of what I'm pretty sure is known as camber.

    Not sure what he's trying to say, but his henna E21 looks much better than Stance Stance Revolution in post 1.

    It doesn't even look nearly as low as the brown e21 on the drivers side. I have no idea what his point is, but whatever it is, I'm pretty sure it's invalid.

    Thanks ben312, for the clarification. I got in on this post late. Yes, I don't run those kind of sneakers" tires "... But I have the "splay".... it's nice.

    i think he is trying to say his car has the same strech. but his car also doesn't have the same camber, or tire width it looks, so the pont that they sit under the car was dumb. well ya they sit under the car, if you sont have the same size wheel, the same amount of camber, of width of tire, then saying your low e21 has tires that sit right is irrelevant. also if your not running the exact same wheel then the off set is different also.

    Just a pic of the father the of the notorious, cult classic, e30. My wheels on my e21 are "splayed". They point out and down for excellent traction, a true half-shaft tradition.

    I "gots" to get on this post... This is my e21. Believe it, my rear wheels are "splayed" just like the car on post number #1. But in this picture taken on "Dragon Run", they are "right", riding the turns on the "tail of the dragon"..........:o

    At least he wasn't a blabbering asshole about his opinion.
    I love the car.
    A little too much stretch for me, I like minor stretch though.
    Camber is a tad too much for my liking, but overall that car is Dope with a capital 'D'.
    I love it, and would definitely rock it.

    What part about "the stretched tire argument has been beaten to death" did you not understand?
