Great additions. But why did you stay with the 245/35 in the back but change to 225/40s up front? Those wheel and tire diameters are different. Thats a 25.1" D up front but only a 24.8" in the back. Does that not upset the handling characteristics?

i wanted to do 255's in the rear, but jurian at EAS advised against it, and the way it is, im kinda glad i left it at 245 to lower the chance of rubbing i can report back that im not gettin squirrely threw 2nd like i did with map 4 and the stock RFT's |

I have 255/35 in the rear and they haven't rubbed after 2500 miles or so. There actually a surprising amount of clearance still. And I don't see why there wouldn't be. The 17" that come on a non-sport pack 135i vert have a diam of 25.2". At least that was my purchasing philosiphy.

Didn't realize you had the 9.5" on the back. I'm using the OEM wheels. Sorry to be annoying.

Very nice additions.
I particularly like the front grilles........Oh that's right they are the same as mine...good choice.
