315 will add 25mm on each end of the sidewall. It may clear the inside, but tires will be poking out 10mm pass the fender if you run without 15mm spacer.

That would be excessively sticking out,especially now that I lowered. I'll just stick to 295s on these stock rins when I upgrade. Thanks,Ben

Those are based on the math number. In actual, it may be different. Depending on the tire sidewall shape.

I'm really looking forward to seeing the 315s. Running a 21x10.5 +30 ET on 295s it's basically sticking outside of the fender. I actually opted to dial back to a 35 ET on this setup due to all the rocks blasting the rear bumper.

To fit 315s I think you would need to do maximum offset of ET29 which would then poke tire 35 mm farther out compared to stock. (Edited for calc correction) Last edited by Transfer; 04-22-2020 at 10:56 AM.. |

I've been following your options on lowering closely. I really wanted M Performance to announce a HAS kit similar to what they've done in the F80. But it's not looking good so maybe I'll give one of the available options a shot.

The suspension travel on this particular chassis is very short. Especially the front. The only way to achieve major drop, it would have to be a full coilover system. That pretty much leaves you with either MSS or H&R or KW HAS if they decided to release one.

Thanks, that one inch drop was just the amount I wanted, although I think it'll look even better once it settles in. Funny thing is, I don't usually get comments from strangers on the car, but last night when they delivered it to me, the gate guard checks my ID and says, "nice ride, I've never seen this model before.". I told him it's a lowered SUV. Then this morning, I go into the police station on base as a cop is coming down the sidewalk. I ask him a question, he answers, then says, "nice car". I've had the car here for a month, and that's never happened once. Drop the ride an inch, and that's twice in 12 hours. Let's just hope they still appreciate it when they pull me over (I wouldn't count on it)

Thanks for the feedback guys. So.im definitely going to go with 20inch wheels. My question you guys is what would be the driving difference if I go 315 or 295 in the rear?

I would say it gives me more traction surface.

I've noticed a little more tramlining since upsizing to 265/295, and no issues losing traction. I wouldn't go any wider personally.

I think cops/troopers who are car enthusiasts are more likely to let you go with a warning as long as you weren't doing anything reckless, and you handle the pull-over properly. |

Wrapped the V Brace! Went with white to stand out a bit. Blue to match calipers was second choice. Such a simple and easy thing to do!

Got it washed since the summer is coming.
I forgot that my wheels are bronze.
