i had these wheels w/eibach pro kit springs on my old ap1, 1" drop. 215's front, 245's out back. fenders were not rolled, and never rubbed in the back. i did go on some spirited drives though, and on some big dip and higher speeds the fronts did rub just a bit, nothing serious though.
also, this was all with the factory alignment, never messed with the camber. so with a lower car, i'm sure the camber can be played with to avoid any major rubbing.

I had these rims on my 325i before I got my S. I had them for about 2 years and the look good but are poorly made in my opinion. The finish on the lip started to come off after about a year and a half. Also when I took them off and sold them, the guy who bought them inspected them, and we found bends in all 4 rims, so I would have to say they aren't that durable.
They are great for the price, but expect to probably replace a rim or 2 over time.

I got these rims from tirerack w/ dunlop M3's in the stock sizes and I rub a bit on the rears over very large bumps. Car is stock. I think they have rubbed 2-3 times during the two months that I've daily driven the car. Other than that they are great.
