      This is the correct size for the 16" E30 M3 Sport Evo. I picked the BF Goodrich g-Force sport comp for my M3 and I've been incredibly happy with them, not sure if they are still available though.

            UPDATE!

            So the E30 has been down for about 2 weeks now. It sprung a fuel leak at the fuel rail (a very simple issue; Fuel line came undone at the inlet, but im still scratching my head on how the hell the line busted loose...I know the fuel pressure isn't nearly as high as the E36 m3, so i dont know what could cause this)

            Since then, that has spurred me to replace my wiring harness (since i had to rip off the intake manifold anyway). The original one I received from Kadunza had a non-functional obd2 diagnostic port...he has since sent me a new one! Great customer service! I'm currently wrapping up the harness install, and about to reinstall the intake manifold and get that all finished up.

            All the while, my girlfriend bought me some Depo smilies for my birthday back in February. Knowing the quality of these headlights (sealant issues), I've opted to retrofit Morimoto v.6 projectors utilizing Squared Motorwerks for a modern day headlight setup and light output!! I'm really looking forward to this mod. I've also installed George Graves E36 One-Touch Windows...it's the little things that count :up:

                also tire choice in 16" is not great.
                Lot better than 15
