All I can say is WooooW! You & JSCO need to do a photoshoot together! Sick as hell! I've always been a fan of Montego blue but had to go BSM because my wife had dibs first!

Thanks I didn't want Montego at first, all I knew was I wanted red interior. After seeing everyone with blk/white/space grey and red interior, I figured I'd be a little different and go SUPERMAN!!!!

the stretch isn't bad, the tires are only one size down from the "recommended" smallest tire size. They take bumps pretty good. As expected from a car on H&R Race springs and stock struts. But bumperstops are you best friend!!!!

thanks again I know I bugged the crap out of you. The guy that did the rear bumper told me that he had a friend that could blow a couple molds of the rear bumper

Awesome pics and very nice car, but not a fan of the narrow tires.

I love the aggressiveness of the M3 sides and front, but I didn't want to go that route. But who knows...but OSS.. I'm thinking hard about that.

This look cannot be achieved without smaller tires. Otherwise, you'd be looking at a standard, boring e90post cookie-cutter car.

Sweet wheels and nice ride. Love that rear. Wheels look huge kinda like 21" to me. JSCO's wheels look smaller for some reason. I guess its because of aggressive front and dif wheel color.
either way, ride looks fantastic.

thats the bad thing they were not step lips (well as I know step lips to be)

I'm not a fan of skinner tires either, I actually wanted to run like 285 tires but ...:
1) didn't want to ride on 25 series tires
2) I didn't want negative camber to make them fit (which I had anyway after lowering on the H&R Race Springs, camber before alignment was -2.13/-2.33 degrees and after its -3)
3) didn't want fender work to make them fit (fender work = anything besides a roll)

But not I'm confident that 245/30(front) and 275/30(rear) will work just fine.

I think mine might LOOK bigger b/c you can actually see where the edge of the rim stop, unlike JSCO b/c of the black you can not see the full face of the wheel. But I thought that would have been backwards. IDK

Why didn't what to run 25 series tire?
Your front 225/30/20 has less side wall than 285/25/20.
