[QUOTE="syahruln, post: 201339, member: 4397"] M30, The 265/35r18 tyres is not that much bigger the my original 195/60r15, only about 4.5% difference. I don't feel that much difference in acceleration or high speed, but definitely can feel the grip. Now can only spin tyres in the rain... heheh... if you need to maintain the standard tyre diameter, you can try 265/35r17. It's only about 0.4% larger than the 195/60r15. Btw, my e23 only 2.5l :D Nemesis, What I mean by arch lowering is just modifying your arches. Only bodywork... make them further away from the tyres and cover the space as you low as you need. Not sure about the cost though, haven't gone for any bodywork yet. Car is not ready for makeups. It's true spring lowering is easier, but I'd put a bulldozer blade to replace my front lip first... hehe too many skyscraping bumps in my vicinity... [/QUOTE]
