      Well if having the spring removed and the shock completely compressed counts as “under load” then yes. Lol

                There are some 16's that will clear e36m brakes, but not the majority. As far as I know, no 16 will clear e46 330 brakes as they are slightly larger than e36m.

                    I stand corrected! Always thought they were just too big, good to know

                      Plenty of room, just need the right offset!

                      Good info. I didn't want to risk the wheels not fitting with the 330i brakes. 

                      For some reason I get no notifications of posts even though I have the notifications turned on. Is this a common issue with the forum?

                      Finally got the car on the ground. I approve. NO POKE!

                              Any idea how much camber you're running in the front? I'm debating switching to this setup at some point for a number of reasons.

                                I have factory upper strut mounts and IE3 springs. Once I get it in for an alignment this spring I can certainly come back and post a number for you if you would like.

                                  Ah gotcha, for some reason I thought you were running coils/camber plates. Thanks! Good to know you can fit a decent tire without leaning them way in
