[QUOTE="teejay, post: 167483, member: 51"] tuned system is not neccesary, but if it compromises safety and handling issues, then it becomes a neccesity. tuned=balanced, meaning the suspension plays the most important part now with the extra weight and radius of the new rims can't help you with the setup because if you are using the normal/standard e30 suspension, it may not be as what you are thinking of, maybe just maybe if you use the bilstein and eibach combo, or koni absorbers and any aftermarket springs, but you will have to adjust the suspension a few times before getting the correct settings....hint - settings for the fronts will not be the same for the rears. if you wanna take it further, there's the 5 lugs e36 Ti/ Z3 suspension to play with.....not that will open up a very wide range of tuning possibilities......rims,rims,rims....brakes,big brakes,bigger brakes and cool brakes:cool: [/QUOTE]
