I think I am going to sell me 16" enkei rims and buy a set of 15" TSW Hockenheim Rim's and some Yokohama 195/50-15 tires along with a set of Eibach Pro kit springs and Bilstein shocks. Is this going to be a good feeling ride? I have only owned VW Scirocco's until now so figuring a good BMW 320i ride is all new to me. Do the math calculations on the tire size sound ok? The other size was 205/50-15's but I wonder about the extra width and rubbing fenders after adding the springs and shocks. There is 2 types of shocks and springs from each manufacturer if anyone can explain that part. This will be a costly venture and I want to make sure it is done correctly in a single shot. Also if anyone might know if I will have rubbing on my arms that I have now?
