    looks good. I'm actually planning on running the same wheel/tire setup with a 18mm adapter in the front and 25mm adapter in the rear on my 318is. It's a bit hard to tell from the pics, does it poke in the rear? Or do you think you could successfully tuck tire with rolled fenders and stock camber? I'm going to be a bit lower than you and want to make sure I can clear the fenders.

        Lack of reading comprehension in this thread is just incredibly depressing.


        On a brighter note, I love Calypso and hoping to change my car to a calypso car! Thanks Herb for allowing me to see how adapters look on those style 5's!

        Will be saving this information for when I get around to finishing up my car lol

        Btw, did you need to roll your fenders at all in the rear? looks a like a tight fit
        SO MUCH MORE TO DO!!

            passenger front fender roll is very bad. sorry but the style 5s are titties though. probably gonna steal this setup if i can roll a decent fender roller guy around me.

              And thanks ;)
              Hmm...I'm going to look into these.

              OP - car looks amazing!

                Thanks guys! Yes, only 3 fenders are rolled since the passenger side fender needs to be replaced. As far as driving it, it still rubs on the rear on hard bumps and the fronts would rub a little if I turn the wheel to its limit. The poke on the rear is just a little past flush, I'll snag a picture when I get a chance. The fronts poke out more than half an inch I believe.

                Josh,

                You're welcome bro! Come to the meet next week and I'll explain it further =)

                                Marcosom,

                                The drop is about 1.7 I believe. These are the 1.5 318is lowering springs from ST.

                                Tg,

                                Thank you mate! New pictures will emerge soon!

                                Paperclip,

                                The adapters are from adaptec.

                                Thank you all! As I said, newer pictures will progress soon!
