not a staggered set up?
I'm running 245/275 staggered right now... But since BMW's come highly balanced from the factory, they sometimes understeer when you max out the rear tire size. Some E46M3 guys do non-staggered track setups for this reason.

I test fitted 275/30/19 up front this weekend and it seems to work, with offset at 12-15. Looks pretty badass, but it gets REALLY CLOSE to the fenders... Scary, thinking that I have 285's that I need to throw on...

If 285 up front doesn't work, I'm thinking 265/285 on 9.5" all around might be a good compromise for that "crazy" setup. My coilover install + on track testing this weekend will answer a lot of questions.
