It does look awesome, but I always feel as though the CS models leave the factory looking perfect, aside from perhaps a slight drop.

The issue when you mod them is they become visually just like every other F8x model.

especially with those types of wheels. OEM+ is best for CS. Like mine

Well in my opinion depends on the wheels, but Im bias

PARTS@STBMW · 10-13-2019, 06:41 PM

Great wheel choice!

DrapKong · 10-13-2019, 08:04 PM

Sexy M!
Have an audio clip exhaust?

I've got the Dinan on mine and not liking the volume of it. It's too tame lol

satx_yas · 10-14-2019, 10:26 AM

Thanks everyone! I'm loving it!

IMO...anyone in the "know" know's its a CS. Factory is boring and for me, I have to add my flavor no matter what it is! I always keep my factory parts so that when I'm done with it I can do the conversion back and easy resale!
I opted for the HRE / FF11 wheel because my M3CS is a daily driver. I wanted something that was off the shelf in the event one gets damaged; didn't lower it too much.
Sorry, no exhaust clips yet.

Maybe these other gents have never seen a lowered car rolling on some perfectly flush fitting aftermarket wheels with wider rubber. The visual impact from most any angle is significant.

Factory setup is super conservative making the f8x look like an i3 in motion. Putting spacers on factory setup only exacerbates the bike tire look.

Very clean setup, but deserves a better suspension than shortened springs.

Thank you! Agreed, the springs are for time being only.
Full suspension upgrades coming soon!

Most CS's will eventually be modded. If you to keep one in mint OEM condition go get one and don't mod it.

Problem solved

Great choice of wheels and exhaust. Perhaps the very best in many ways. Congratulations!

M3Diaz · 10-17-2019, 07:37 AM

The only time I like the OEM+ look is the time leading to new wheels or in between wheel setups. I think your car looks great.

M3nmotion18 · 10-17-2019, 11:14 AM

Congrat! Looks great!

khanyam4 · 10-17-2019, 07:12 PM

Look awesome, need some profile picture of the car though.
