Considering my personal experience with spacers I am surprised anyone
that has any experience would think that they're appropriate to recommend
after spending $3-4k on wheels.
If you can get it right without spacers, that's how it's done.
On that note, my 2 cents has clearly been given.

I was simply suggesting spacers in his case since he's already bought the wheels.

idk, i agree with lgear.
ive ridden in 275/30/19 on a 19x10.5 +22 with 8mm spacer(to clear oem brembos) for the front with -3 camber and dropped 2 or more inches with no rubbing.
something is wrong here.
the original set up lgear recommended can fit a 275 up front easily and that's with a big drop.

I should note that I don't run fender liners (have not for 4 years)
and am on d-specs/s-techs. Many members have personally seen
my car, ridden in my car, and some have driven my car.
I do believe bimmer's issue is that he hasn't discarded the liners
yet - am i correct?

That's rough on the waiting on the wheels thing...Hey superblack and lgear, when you were running the 19's how low were you with the 275 or 265 up front? I'm looking to go to a 265 30 but want to keep stockish camber. I'm in the one's right now and no rubbing but I know that I am damn close. I don't feel like pulling anymore either.
Lastly...anyone know if vehicle speed is definitely measured from the front wheels? it's what i"m assuming but need ot be sure.
