E30 suspension question
-
I am not trying to do all of that. I just want to install a set of coilovers. I have watched a few raceland e30 install videos and they simply slide the old shock out of the front tube assembly and put in the Raceland shock and the adjustable collar and then reassemble the strut. And they look to go plenty low. I will probably run some sort of staggered wheel setup if its possible. I like haveing wider wheels/tires in the rear. Not 100% on if I want 16's or 17's. I have been looking at the ESM 002r wheels.

Racelands will be the most economical chouce if you want cheap and low. Just don't expect any longevity or quality.

ClassE what year and model is your car?

The common counsel has agreed... 16" wheels it is. What's next on our agenda?
-
Well then 16's it is. Maybe. I do know they cost a bit less and tires are cheap

Well then 16's it is. Maybe. I do know they cost a bit less and WIDE tires are PLENTIFUL IF YOU WANT TALL SIDEWALLS FOR MUSTANG AND F-BODY APPLICATIONS

I know I wasnt thrilled with the 235/245 width 16" tire selection
-
What about 225/50? That should fit without looking monster truck.

I have another question. Witch e30's if any come with a LSD? Otherwise what am I looking at cost wise to put one in?
-
Optiona on all models. You can snag a diff up for $250 or less. E28 diff's will sawp in to if you change the cover and side flanges.
Would I just reuse the cover and side flanges from the exsisting diff thats on the car?
