To get rid of the problem maybe try to use 245/35/19 up front & 275/30/19 on the rear tires setup instead what the current setup as they seems to be for 3-series tire size

Thats what I was thinking. 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 is what we would usually put on the 3series. I think to pull it off, you might need coilovers and frt and rr spacers to push those wheels out some more. I think it would look clean if it were slammed.

Finally saw the pics - looks ok, but sure could use a drop

I'm not sure these wheels work very well in 19, 20s would be perfect probably...

+1 for spacers as soon as i can get them lowered haah.

should i just get springs for now instead of coilovers? or should i just save up for D2 racing coilovers, which will only cost me about 930.00...

or NOT settle for less and just get KW's?

I personally would get coilovers. I dont think just springs alone will drop it enough to cover those tires.
