Looks good! Do you have a plan address the rubbing?

I'm lowered (with rolled fenders) and it's even worse, I put my stockers back on for now. I'm thinking to run 4 fronts all around rather than attempt to stretch the tires, I think it will look too stance-ey.

260's but same specs and stock tire sizes
Solution 1: Add more camber, from what I researched, stock rear arms should give -3 degrees, if not, aftermarket arms. I borrowed my friend's roller to roll arches too.

Solution 2: Get 35 profile tires

Solution 3: M3 rear fenders I want this the most

It's the taller M3 tires that give it the illusion.

Lack of updates...

Sold the 219s as they were way too big, replaced with some 189s that are mint!!! Take offs from an original owner. So far I've managed to remove only the tints on the front windows. Will get to the rear soon. ST coilovers installed and replaced the eBay LED turn signals. Car is in need of a detail but will wait after I get my fender repaired and once I get the M sport front bumper. Got hit and run in front of my house.

Yikes, rough luck getting tagged in front of your house. Good excuse to upgrade your bumper while you're at it though. If you get an M Sport one, the ROW version without the reflector is available through several vendors.

Good to know, I was thinking of going thru Kies Motorsports.

My ST Coilovers were great while they lasted. I put PC Glisten on them, not a speck of rust on them.Only thing is one blew out after about 6,000 miles. I can't get warranty unless I pull it off and send it in. I don't have a stock one to put into it. I can't purchase a replacement. In any case, I loved them when it was good. Not trying to ruin your thread, just sharing info. I love your build BTW, beautiful colors.

Thanks bud! I already sprayed it with rattle can clear. Never heard of PC Glisten but I'll look into it as well. Do you still have your wagon?

Haven't done much to the car. Prepping for winter so I picked up a set of Style 194, weren't up to my standards so I bought another set.

Looks great with the 194's. What'd you end up doing with the front bumper situation?

Does your E91 have stock halogens or xenon?
