My 08 335xi, been looking to go more aggressive before summer but I'm not sure what will look best and what will fit best either. Ideally, I want to do 18x9.5 et33 F and 18x9.5 et22 R with 255/35 all around.

You can go more aggressive than that too!

What are you thinking? I wanna keep the wheel size at 18" but I really have no experience with aggressive set-ups since this is my first car that I've modded/attempted to stance haha. Any suggestions would be welcome!

All depends what you want your goal to be. I have 18x9.5 +22 18x10.5 +20 with 235/40/18 & 265/35/18
So, you have a lot of room!

cut them or remove them at your own risk.

Trimming mine come spring.

Just removed my front bumpstops completely, went for alittle drive and the front end feels a lot nicer, no bottoming at on small road waves at all. But it didnt really seem to get the front end any lower then it was with them in.

hmmm... now to me, this is great news as thats all I want to be at (24in height) hahaha.

But i guess I thought you could go lower... Im assuming you have driven it around a little bit? Whenever i jack my car up it rides like an inch higher for 1/2 a day unless I go bang some corners or hit a really bumpy road.

You cant expect to be as low as someone on bags if thats what you were hoping... I think that is perfect IMO (from your pics). Too low and your going to rip that lip off and cause more damage to that bumper. To me spending over 1000 bucks on a bumper and lip thats the LAST thing i want to do... But thats just me... unless you like carrying spare oil pans like all my vdub friends.

[WiscoE90]

to me it looks like your tucking... maybe not extreme, but you still are. You dont have some crazy tire size do you?

good new for you then! 24ftg looks nice, i just wanted to get a little lower to create a bit more rack. and i definitely do not want to be ripping lips off, and cracking oil pans lol, i had that problem with my last car!
