performance of OEM 15" rims with bilstein/eibach suspension setup?
 
Until I can afford new rims, how would this setup work. Would there be any problems?

I have that
 
it's not a lot of fun, the 205/65/15 tires make you feel like you're driving in snow all the time. You don't notice anything about the suspenision being that different at all, and looking at the car, you can't even really tell that it's lower than stock when you have all that tire between the fender and rim lip.

When you have some 17" rims on, then you will get more feedback on what the car is doing, especially with the suspension. It is a world of difference, both in looks and feel.

I ran that for a few weeks, and will be running that for the rest of the winter startng this weekend
 
The performance is not bad. you can still corner at higher speeds and what not. And on top of that, it doesn't even look all that bad.
