By the time you need to replace tyres, your should consider getting M3 CSL sized tyres : 235/35 19 & 265/30 19. This setup will be half way between stock and M3 in overall diameter.

The factory E90 19 inch rim option includes 225/35 19 & 255/30 19 tyres, but Tirerack recomends 235/35 19 & 265/30 19.

Glad to know that you have no rubbing issues, but please keep in mind that after lowering her, you may indeed encounter some at the rear. Have you already tried running your car with 5 big people aboard? That may give you some idea of what you may encounter after lowering...

Once again, congratulations for an excellent color/wheel choice. Very original indeed. After seeing your car, I will probably get a set of those wheels for my next E92. You cannot beat polished aluminum wheels on a black car...

thanks man, yeah i've driven with 5 people, i just want the back to drop a inch and ill be happy, theyre is like a little too much gap between the tire and car, its annoying.

This is my first post in the BMW forums, Selling the porsche and my e90 is on the way on next friday.

I woul be really interested in the DVD conversion and the back up camera hack!

Where can I get it .

I really like the way your car is done ... looks mint!

Did you do the tint on the headlamps your self ? is it a film? who does it? Is it possible to do the euro spec clear look?

Thanx guy

lux.sh · 12-22-2005, 09:37 AM

I think tightie got the car taken away and now looking for a e46 coupe or a SUV...
