I have a 95 clubsport with factory 16" 5 spoke wheels. When I bought the car it had rokkor coilovers and 205-60r16 snow tires (car was from up north). I recently bought some all seasons in the stock size (225-50r16) but upon mounting them the inside sidewall is rubbing BADLY on the springs and bottom spanner nuts of the front coilovers. I've read about ppl running these coilovers all over the various bmw forums but no one has mentioned this problem. currently it would seem that my options are to A) by different tires or B) buy wheel spacers. Has anyone else had this issue?
