Default SSR Comp

I've always wondered how SSR's comps would look on a Ti.
Well here's how...

Hmm we have all these pics of wheels what is possibilty that each member list their suspension set-up so if some one likes it. They could duplicate it?

Or is there a Suspension thread like that? We had one on www.e30tech.com called show me your drop.

It listed shocks springs and rubber spring pad thickness and then in inches height to wheel arch from ground.

Edit:
Stock suspension 17x8.5 Kosei K1 235-40-17 et 41.

Finally got my new wheels

Pics attatched, What do you think?

I love the deep dish on the back wheels, and the very sticky tyres that are wrapped round them, im enjoyings my TI even more!!

BUT, since fitting the wheels ive notice a 'distant' grinding/vibrating noise coming from the front when turning right. No idea to what it could be so taking it to BMW specialist tmoz.

Cheers

John

Just noticed the baby style 32's.

Mounted my two 17x8.5 to see if I was gonna have fitment issues. These were much lighter than the oem Borbet H style wheels.
