I had my g slammed on bc coils over last winter and I picked up some 18s and didn’t realize they had such a crazy stretch on them at first. So for the next two weeks I had to drive to my cousins house for work, every morning in a development with absolutely brutal speed bumps. After the two weeks my 6 month old tomei catback looked like a waffle.

Pretty much ever since I got my E34 I wanted to be part of that "stance" crew, get wheels that were poking out and run stretched tires. I've had my Rondell 0053 8.5 and 10 R17 for this summer and I've decided that I actually like the meaty setup better. I was running 225/45 in the front and 235/45 in the rear. I'll be putting up my wheels for sale this winter and will get some 8 and 9 style 5s or something and run the OEM setup on those. Can't wait.

I have the base 3.8 (sedan) and already placed an order on General Altimax tires. I couldn't go with a 245 bc it runs in the back. He had Nitro Neo Gens and it had a bit of stretch. Can Generals stretch too?
