I don't want the KDW's because they are too expensive and I've not been impressed with the reviews.

Looking for 205/45 R17's

[Bimmerman325i]

hm. Falken 912s are a decent high performancey all season

[iamsam]

I still recommend BFG G-force sports. Cheap, good, decent treadwear, etc.

where is the best/cheapest place to get these?

[blefevre]

I got mine on tirerack when they had a $60 gift card with purchase. You can get them at discount tires too I believe. They are pretty common tires.

[Cloudbase]

They are back ordered at Tirerack. Costco has the KDW's in stock for about the same price as tire rack with shipping. They might be cheaper once installation is covered. I have a $70 off Coupon somewhere too.

Thinking about going with those again. Any have any experience with Bav Auto springs?

Do Bilstiens come with shock mounts attached or are they separate?

[blefevre]

I didn't realize your wheels were 17's, I thought they were 16's. I change my spring decision to H&R Races. 17's look goofy with wheel gap.

Any have any experience with Bav Auto springs?

No experience here. I have heard they are either eibachs or the same as eibachs. Therefore a little lower then H&R sports but very soft.

[Cloudbase]

How about racing dynamics?

[blefevre]

I assume they lower it about as much as H&R sports, that is how it is for the Ti springs. Being a "real" tuning company they won't always go as low as people want. That is just a guess though, I don't have the specs.

One thing about RD. The "real" springs are green and I think NLA. The newer ones are blue and are outsourced to a different company and pretty much suck. I don't know if this is for E30 springs but its a big deal with Ti springs as people really like the real RD green springs but people find the blue ones on ebay and think they are the same thing.

I've had rd springs. They were great, much like hr sports. Ride height can be seen in pics here: www.cardomain.com/Id/iannfld they are on the 325 pics next to the m3 at the barn. They were the green ones.

Why not 215/40/17? I'm running 235/40, but the are a tight fit.

[Cloudbase]

That ride height would be perfect, not trying to slam it. I was looking at the RD springs in the FS section. They are green. Emailed him, maybe we can make a deal. He wants $500 for new springs with 10k mileage shocks. Think that's a good deal?

I got my tire size using a calculator, it's what tire rack recommended too. So 215/40's would be thinner sidewall right. Is that what you are running on your RGR's?

I never thought the cops were THAT bad with speeding tickets. I do agree with the red light cameras. Those things go off if you even think of inching forward.

read through the article. That actually pisses me off pretty good. I have never had a red light ticket for stopping a little past the white line, but if i did, I would be livid. If that is true, that is total BS.

[blefevre]

I'm sure it is someone freaking out. Yes, they will take your picture but I have never actually gotten the ticket. I'm sure they sort though them. The ones in littleton are insane.

...good thing I stay out of Denver mostly...
