        Thanks guys! I rolled the fenders tonight and I think its going to work. I got the 215/40's mounted and it looks much better than the 215/45's. I didnt get too crazy with the roller and so far so good. I took it on a drive tonight and no rubbing under acceleration and only a hint of rubbing at lock and entering my driveway. The curb is a joke and you have to come in at a 45 degree angle or you will damage the front valence. The car is so stiff that with the sways I actually have to carry a bit of speed otherwise I get stuck teetering on the drivers rear and passenger front. I've had to get out of the car to push it off the driveway a couple times.

        Anyway...

          The more I look at your car, the more I love it. Wasn't a huge fan of the 17's but the more I look at it the more I like it. Great work. What rates did you go with?

                    Looks much sweeter with the smaller sidewall. Time for some glamor shots!

                    LOL at the teetering...that must be one stiff chassis!

                      Didnt quite get it to 2 wheels, but I was close. I did get stuck however and had to push the car off the curb.





                      I went for a drive this afternoon, close to 30 miles. I get rubbing in the back under compression on the highway and it drives me nuts. I dont really want to roll the fenders any more, I just dont want to butcher them up. I could stiffen up the rear shocks but then the ride gets really shitty. I think I'm going to put these up for sale or head overto Bf.c and see what the E36 guys have for trade... :(

                                Why not just get some stock lips for the rear two and rebuild them as 8" wide? The wheels are beautiful, they just need some massaging.
