Hey, Gman, you like those kumho tires? I have the same ones, but 205/50 and I think the 50 aspect was a mistake so I think I will try the 55 like yours.

I do like them, just don't drive in the snow with them because they are a summer tire. My E30 is parked over the winter when salt is dumped on the roads.

what tire and suspension do you have? I'm looking for similar setup on my e30

[coldweatherblue]

hey man, I was broke when I did my suspension so basically the cheapest drop for the E30:

vogtland + kyb

ESM 002r 15x7 front 15x8 rear

yoko sdrive 205/55r15

requires rolled fenders.

get bilsteins if you can afford it the kybs roll a bit on high speed dips on the freeway. otherwise the setup has been fine for the past 150k miles.

14s (for now) on red and 15s on salmon silver, both on H&R/Billies sport with e90 drop hats and 5mm spring pads:

What size tire would you go with what wouldn't require rolling of the fenders but is pretty close?

[coldweatherblue]

195/55r15 would work but would have too much stretch for my rear wheels.

205/50r15 shouldn’t rub (but I can’t say for sure) and is a way more popular size but smaller than stock so your speedo is off and doesnt look as good imo.

Yeah the guy who rolled my fenders totally fucked it up too which was a bummer but what can you do.
