It's been wrapped 'Satin Pearl Blue', originally BSM.

Are the H&R springs 30mm front 20mm rear?

That's correct

[slowie]

Thanks Stu.

I have the M Performance front lip. Do you think with these springs it will be getting too low? Im thinking maybe KW HAS?

For me personally I don't think it's too low, but the KW sleeve kit would be handy to finetune it a little bit if you needed to later on.

Got an F8X KW HAS kit in stock if you are keen

Does the KW kit come with shocks or springs only?

Just worried about lowering on stock shocks?

Price?

The Sleeve Kit is just springs and the adjustable perches.
http://www.bmraw.com/kw-lowering-spring-sleeve-kit-f8x/

Replacement springs and shocks start with the KW Clubsport (2 way adjustable) Coilovers with included top mounts for $5.5k (includes the KW Eliminators)

Stu, which HRE wheels are you putting on? 19 or 20

Do you think 295 would fit under the rear?

With this kit and the KW HAS, have you had a chance to drive on either?

Would be interested in your feedback.

Cheers.

The customer changed his mind last minute to a set of Vorsteiners, so we will have these on very soon and more pics up! Adding the M perf front lip, rear spoiler and sideskirt extensions as well.

Yes I reckon a 295 will fit and I believe that's what most people are using (combined with a 265 front)

I haven't driven an F8X on KW HAS yet. Driven them on the H&Rs and it doesn't seem any different to standard.

Just ordered 295. In stock.

Will put 275 rears to the front.

Maybe more relevant to an 'Aussie dyno thread' here are two tuned dynosheets

1. F80 M3 with an OE Tuning Flash Tune
1. F82 M4 with JB4 (map 1)

Both cars have a catback exhaust only and no other mods.

Whilst peak power is similar in both, the OE tune midrange power and torque is much stronger. Both excellent options for people wanting more power.

[slowie]

Would be intersting to see map 2 on JB4?

Soon.. adding DP and Intake next!
If I get the chance I will put the car back on the dyno and run map 2 'as is' see what the difference is.

285. 20x11 rears, tried 295 but they ballooned too much. It's pretty much perfect fitment.
