Just my 2 cents.
You know what.. I agree. They are coming off and some 19s or even 18s are coming back on.

Thanks Martin.

They look great, but too big for my taste (and these roads).

Car looks REALLY great! Just curious, do you rub in the front with the square setup (BBS CH) when turning or going into driveways? You posted that you are running a 10mm spacer in the rear. Any spacers in the front?

Thanks!

No rubbing at all with the CHs and those 275/30/19 tires. No spacer on the front, ET20 on a 19x10 front is flush.

Thanks for the information. That is awesome that there is no rubbing as the stance is perfect. The KW/BBS CH combo really sets it off!

just curious regarding the BBS CH's if I didn't run a spacer in the rear, would it rub in the back or look weird? I love that setup on a E90!

Neither. Sold it within 6 months. It's for sale now on the forums actually. At least it was 2-3 months ago.
