215/45 front and 235/40 rear. Once these tires are done I am jumping to a 245/35 rear, front fitment will stay the same, it is perfect. Stock e30 wheel and tire height is 609.09mm with the 245/35 it will be 603.25mm. I am on the fence between 245/40 or 35 profile. The 245/40 is 627mm, so 10mm in side wall gain. I really want to keep a beefy look without losing clearance. Time will tell...
Thanks man, and it was a BLAST riding in that V8 monster. Next time we need to talk over new wheels to build for you and maybe a bit more stance?!
You really need to ride in my Brother's vert. He has the street coilover kit, it is comfy. With Ground Control's custom springs rates you can have low and comfort.
Thanks Lambo, I am working on going much wider and more tire. I am trying to locate bigger lips for the rear so I can jump to 10.5R and 9F ;) Only issue is the Artec MI is NLA and one of the rarest wheels in the USA. This will be a problem...
I see you in here Frank, can you add your pictures that you took please? This is all I have.
FrankM and I setup a little e30 meet, nothing big just some friends out for a drive on a gorgeous day. Chris aka KatFish joined in his sexy 325is. Swanny came in person because his e30 is getting aligned. My brother with his vert and CBR600RR. My other brother swapped back and forth with the vert, mine and CBR because his e30 is awaiting inspection.
So up first is the setup pictures then some of from the day at random.
Let me know what you guys think!
Here is my buddy Sean aka Swanny on r3v. After this setup above he went for a plank on that white pole...nice landing bro!
Sean's e30 via iPhone lol
Then Frank had to leave for a lunch date or something. So I shot these two while figuring out what to do next.
Ended up the vert needed gas, then we went to Wendy's for a hour or so. Then went to Target for a movie to watch back at my Brother's place.
@target
Random pictures through out the day:
I dropped the front and rear ANOTHER .5" lol. Pulled and rolled like crazy to get that frosty zero rubbing under heavy cornering. Perfection is when people ask what air ride you are using. Static bitches ;)
This thing a MONSTER to ride in.
<3
Suspension needs some love badly haha. There is no getting around how amazingly clean Chris' e30 is. Working out the suspension with him soon.
Chris needed gas, on the way there.
Waiting in the parking.
These are on the way to meeting everyone. I stopped for gas, just some random pictures my brother shot.
I really LOVE this shot, I desire paint that nice :(
These are on the way home after the movie. Dropping Sean off to his truck the heading home with some rolling shots.
I have about 1/8th clearance in the front while turning lol. GC and valved struts make THAT happen without damaging fenders ;)
I love everything about this rolling shot, it is just a beast stance. Wide wheels, meaty tires with tons of pan scraping low!
