Would be interesting to see just how much more aggressive you can run the spacers before you have rubbing issues...I am planning to go 15mm with these H&R Springs on stock 19's.....what is your opinion?

What are the wheels/size in this picture? And did you guys use any spacers? I loved the stance of my E90 (sold yesterday) it was sitting on H&R springs with OEM competition wheels and MS spacers. Would love to replicate the stance on the F80 hopefully when I get it.

Just a guess, but based on what I've seen people fitting with lower springs, it's an educated guess.

It seems every M I've owned, the rear always looks lower than the front... I'm not a big fan of that at all. The front should be lowered 1.2 and rear maybe .5 or something like that.
Maybe that KW sleeve over kit would be awesome

Tom, are these springs readily available? Have you sold all the ones you have? More coming in?

That looks awesome. Even better with the 10mm spacers.

+1, drop looks good, especially with the 10mm spacers.. not too low but closes up the gaps nicely.

Most likely, most M3s in SoCal come through the doors here
1st shipment has already sold, we're keeping a list for next shipment. I'll send a PM so we can keep the thread tech-related.

oh wow I thought that was p-shopped! lol Is that car running the stock sizes? 9" in front, 10" in rear? Or 10" square? It's a shame the 359's are heavier and not forged; they look so good.

That's exactly what I'm saying. Or lower the front more than the back so the drop is more even.
