starting out...
 
H&R sport springs and TR Motorsport wheels in 18x9 with 255/35 Dunlop Direzza Z1 Star Specs = no more understeer

Edit: And yes the little red stickers were taken off the tires.

b/c These are not going to be used every day. I autocross, and plan to track the car so I wanted something light and not expensive so that if I did bend them somehow it wouldn't be that big of a deal. The wheels weigh 19 lbs and cost me $150, why not?

more importantly, why the HELL would you put lowering springs on a bmw? Keep the height stock unless youre going to go to bilstein coilovers or something quality. this isn't a fucking honda...this isn't even a cheap bmw, it's a fucking e90. smh. HAI GUYZ LETS BUY A $15K+ CAR AND THEN 200 DOLLAR LOWER SPINRGS. I am about 95% sure this is owned by a 16 year old.

edit: at least you bought decent tires for tracking. i give you an ounce of credit

Because its a bmw, also if you plan on tracking why would you waste money on lowering springs, they'll do you no good. You would've been better off leaving it stock, tracking it for a while, then making upgrades. You've done nothing more than waste money

Isn't the treadwear rating of those tires going to put you into an autocross class that you don't want to be in with a stock BMW?
