[QUOTE="Geometry, post: 643486, member: 27637"] 320d has much torque that the 320i, therefore a 255 at rear for the RWD to minimise the possibility of oversteer. I think a 225 at rear for 320d will go botak much faster than a 255 due to less road contacting surface. For handling wise, noise and etc, you may have a better understanding from this article.
