Finally Lowered...But not for long

I just might do that. And thanks. :up: 205/45's are what I have right now, and I think they're perfect. 50's is just a hair too tall for my liking.

Sounds like we have the same tastes. What tires do you have? Those are 16x8's as well right?

They're 16x7.5, and the tires are Yokohama Parada Spec-2.

Wow! They're gorgeous! Thanks for your input!

I'd recommend the peerless severe duty plate. Carbon steel throughout and welded to the frame. It makes the raceskids plate look like a joke.

No biggie. I love that the sidewalls on them aren't covered in some crazy pattern, they're almost totally smooth except for the lettering.

Josh, keep in mind you dont have an m42 pan ;)

But still, be more careful. I dont have a skidplate

[Jand3rson]

This is true, and I still need to get a skidplate, but I think I'm also going to raise the engine some using the E36 motor mounts.

I like the Paradas :up:

get the skid plate if you don't have one yet

[e30nub]

Thanks for the input guys! I already bought the RaceSkids one.

hows the ride with the setup? still comfortable?

[e30amour]

i like the arnold.

If you end up busting through the Raceskids skid plate, expect there to be more damage than just a busted/cracked oil pan lol..

People need to give reviews on it if any, because I for one have put mine through hell.

Oh, and I wear 16x8's so here is a 205/45 if that helps.

It feels pretty nice for daily driving. This is the only lowered E30 I have ever been in so I'm kinda biased

Thanks for the pic. 205/45's it is.

If you got 45s wouldnt that screw up your speedometer? Or would it be too little of an increase

I believe Josh (Janderson) already mentioned something of the sort on the first page.

EDIT: Second page:
