Comments below, and before you lot start, i bought the wheels off ebay (they are real rough up close) and the front tyres are 215/40 R17 and rears are 235/40 17 so i need to either buy 2x 215/40's and make all 4 tyres stretched, or buy another 2x235/40 and have them all wide and looking same.

Whats your opinions, ? I have the 235's on the rear and they dont rub unless car is full of people.

Also on UK plates now, and DTM back box. along with re-paint done by myself. Cosmos Black (it's what is was) Painted everything except roof.

I'd stay with the 215s front, but up the rears to 245/35 (same overall diameter as your fronts). Thats what I'm running on 8.5 fronts, 9.5 rears

love that 8)

altho, the rear wheels don't sit wide enough to fill the arches - all IMHO of course :wink: - this could easily be rectified by using E36 compact rear arms to give the wheels a further 44mm wider track overall (22mm a side) winkeye
