[QUOTE="Bimmer910, post: 220774, member: 6280"] Hi GHS & Tom, I own a 320 as well. Heres my quick take on your situation. Changing your tyres to non-RFTs will be one of the biggest improvements to the overall drive quality. You will certainly appreciate the car a whole lot more. Whether you choose to go with 18s or 19s is dependant on how much driving you do. If youre like me, (i do at least 100kms a day), then perhaps you shouldnt be looking at 19s. The pot holes on average roads will ruin a pleasant drive. However, if youre more of a cruiser than a driver, then i say, go for it ! 19s would look amazing. As Danc pointed out, and DavidYong will attest to, going with a non staggered set up offers you the benefit of rotating your tyres every 8-10k kms. Spacers wont help with the drive, but they certainly will add to the stance. KL2DC, 15mms are a good bet no? You must remember that with only 150HP, the 320i wasnt built for a quickie down the track. Your rims+tyres should fetch 2.5-3k back. DaveY will be able to shed some light on this issue. CHeers ! [/QUOTE]
