      The wheels look similar, and I knw Sportmaxxes are total crap, and these are a lot better quality, but the look is strikingly similar...

        ok, so I just went back and read it, 225/35 wow that is a sssssssssssssstttttttttttrrrrrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeeeeee aaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttttttccccccccccccccchhhhhhh hhhh.
        the proper euro stretch sized tire should be a 245/35 rear9.5"rim, and a 215/40front 8.5" rim front. why are you going so extreme? watch out for jordan too!!

          well after living in germany for 6yrs strech is whatever u can fit. Me and one of my best friends herman at http://www.felgen-garage.de//picked out the sizes. So i guess that makes them euro. but the normal for a 9" wheels is a 215/40 so 225/35 on a 9.5" is just fine. my front have a bit less strech they r 8.5" with 215/35 rubber.

            Herman is his brother that worked as a gate guard in Wuerzburg isnt he? with the black e46 if I remember right.

            all of the E30 M3s with 9.5 rears are running 245/35/17 including me and Dave- its the "TUV" size

            I like stretch too.

              yes that is him. That is the TUV size but I was american so it didn't matter. Did u ever see his E46 when it was done? or just when it was wrecked. well here is a pic of it.

                      Flat black ruins the whole project for me.
                      I was excited to see it completed up until now.

                            This should be interesting it will be really hit or miss depending on the quality of paint. Cant wait to see it done and keep us updated. I am sure the haters will change their mind once they see the final product!
