Thanks! I already have 18's, I think you were asking about 19's. I bought a used set of BBS's from an e46fanatics classified section back in December. I will be getting some new tires for them and putting them on around the end of April.

The settling was re-confirmed by John@motorcepts to me today - he said that it is only natural that the front settles before the rear.

Thanks, guys! I'm gonna break the suspension in and see how it sits when it settles, but the front is flush already.








I'm seriously considering RWD 123's for the winter, instead of the crappy Xi 123's I have on now. RWD 123's are offset 23mm's wider and they are more concave - should look nice... then again, why spend money on crap I don't really need-need... Guess its something to think about for later.

Look waaaaaaay better Vladdy, now you do really need new wheels. Just wait until it settles before deciding, should take about a week to fully settle.
