tires are 215/40 Kumho Excsta 711's. They are trash!

I like it a lot! Hell yeah! I have an 88 Cabrio and I was thinking about putting euro bumpers on myself. Where did you get them? Ballpark figure on cost? I know BavAuto sells them, but they'd be about $750 for both bumpers, which is more than I want to pay.

I always like early euro bumpers--it gives the car a much more pronounced forward-leaning look, like the 6 series.

I got the bumpers for free :) Bought bumpers in a package with a euro valance sold the valance for what I paid for the bumpers thus free. As for 17's making it look 4x4 the only one that does slightly is the rear but it only looked that way after I put on the euro bumper since it sits about an inch higher than the standard US bumpers. Plus I dont want it slammed, my other car is slammed and it is not good for DD, I am tired of being worried about scraping the bottom of the car etc..

The m3 springs dont bind or anything, I would of liked it to come down another 1/2 inch in the rear but I am happy with them. They dont bounce either.

It's your car so do so as you please, I just think 17's are hugh. I like that color, but it's not stock correct? I know what you are saying about the ass end looking jacked due to the lack of the plastic and no lower rear valance.

Does the rear have M3's? I did M3 springs in mine but it sits with a slight foward rake.

Are you using the spring pads in the rear? I wanted my car to sit about a half inch lower than it did, so I yanked the lower spring pads out and it was perfect.

I understand what you are saying about the 17's

Yeah M3 springs all around, as for the spring pad I am leaving it. It is noisey enough, I dont want to get rid of the spring pad and have more noises than I already do.
