H&R race concern,

[iamsam]

dude, springs have almost no bearing on snow driving, as long as you are driving on the road. If there is three feet of snow, your E30 won't clear it anyway. I plowed through 2 Colorado winters w/ my Races and I was fine. Actually, it was great. I even took the E30 up into the mountains to go snow boarding. Good snow tires are key, and an LSD helps. Also, you don't get high-centered on a flat road covered in snow, any snow that may be higher than the underside of your car gets plowed out of the way by your valence.

What wheels do you use for winter?

The first picture you quoted looks like a bottle cap to me.

I had crap kumhos on my H&R'd 318i and it was a freaking snowmobile. Just keep the gas tank over half-full ;)
