We have quite a few available so its an active part number now.

30-40mm front
5-25mm rear

But yes finally!

Meh, I'd just go with the 10s and save a grand.

Does anyone know the spring rates? Are the springs rates for the F8X PSS10 and Damptronic kits the same?'

This is exactly what I'm looking for. Secretly and patiently waiting for my lowering springs to wear out the shocks so I can justify this whole kit vs buying a new set of OEM shocks

They dont publish the spring rates but would imagine its the same...

I'm interested in the spread between comfort, sport and sport+ on this kit. I hope the spread is a bit wider than on the stock setup - meaning that comfort could be a slightly bit softer for my taste (on the M3 ZCP) with 20" wheels. Then sport should be a great all-round mode for the track (e.g. Nordschleife).

Agree, but I don't think you're going to get an unbiased review until an end customer takes the plunge and gives their feedback. I'm really interested in these too, but will not be a guinea pig for a $3500+ product.

Looking forward to the review.

Question regarding drop heights. You mentioned it's 30-40mm front / 5-25mm rear. Is there a recommended setting for front/rear drop together in the product documentation? For example, is the minimum drop of 30mm front / 5mm rear less than ideal than 30mm front / 15mm rear for example? If I was to buy this kit, I would be setting it to the minimum drop on both front and rear, so 30mm / 5mm, so this bit of information would be pretty important for a future purchase.

Thanks in advance

They dont give recommended settings but you can for sure do the minumums. We were waiting for the springs to settle and we will be doing adjustments and further set up on scales and on the alignment rack. More details as we get them. We can help you w the ride height set up too....

I'm interested in a kit. Please pm on how to buy and delivery time. Also, are the springs linear? Kw are progressive and I'm not into progressive springs. That said, I'm one of the few people who ran the older iteration on my e92 and absolutely loved them. I can't believe how bad - soft and uncontrolled the stock fix suspension is. My oem springs and shocks with 80k miles on my e92 were immensely superior.

I can’t comment on the comp pack, but I have the Damptronic setup. Several of us have it, just search for the feedback.
