Anyone running a non-M3 e30 in STX? If so, what are you looking at wheel and tire wise?
I'm having difficulty finding an 8" 4 lug wheel that has any decent tire choices.

Justin Bedard ran his on 205/50-15s. He tried a 17" but went slower, he's pretty fast on those 15s.

Same applies, in fact it applies even more. Since you have less power to push those big tires, I wouldn't go bigger than a 205, or maybe a 215 16"

I don't know what STX is, but the tire of choice on KP cars appears to be either 225/45/15 or 225/50/15 (I run the former) on lightweight 7"-8" wheels.

I ran 15x7 Kosei K1's with 205/50-15 MX's on my '90 325is, in STX regionally with moderate success. I could've/should've put a wider tire on there, among other things...
Hope it helps-

I am planning on running 15x7.5 Ronal LS's with either Falken Azenis 615's, Kumho MX's, or the Hankooks. Size will be 205/50.
