For those of you going aftermarket, what size are you thinking?
E87 from the UK
  • Hartge Classic 2 wheels 19" front 8J offset 40 rear 9J offset 46
  • Continental SportContact 3 tyres 225/35 & 255/30 non-runflat (and much improved ride as a result over the 208M 18's).
The profile of tyres is not a problem at all with ride quality which is way better than OEM. Bad potholes must however be avoided at all costs, and the rim is in constant danger of being kerbed! I don't think they look too big and they have certainly improved the drive.

Also;
  • Hartge -25mm springs
  • M Sport Dampers
  • Hartge 25mm ARB's (sway bars)
  • Rolled-in rear wheel arch lip
  • AP Racing 356mm x 32mm 6 pot front brakes (not pictured, don't go under the 18's.


More pics linked in my sig.

BTW I love LM's!
