Beautifull, 29mm for the rear. That's really big. Do you plan on putting stiffer springs on the rear of your car too?
Thank you. The springs in that picture are the Afe springs for the F80/F82 and they're going on the car in like 3 weeks when I get the bars put on. I've seen the M4 guys use 435i springs and I know the f22/f32 springs are interchangeable so it follows logically that F80/F82 Springs would work on our cars as well. I haven't seen anyone else doing it but the springs were 50% off in December so again it was too good of deal to pass up. If I knew about the 335i Swift Spec R's I would have gotten those without question haha! I considered the Swift's for the F82 for a while but thought they might be just beyond the oem damping capability with 5/13 F/R spring rates. I think they would do really well paired with the B8s or Koni Yellows for our cars, or the B6s for the F80/82/87 so if I don't like the set up with Afe bars and springs I might try that next. I'm trying to get max performance without going to full coil-overs as this is my DD but plan to run a couple HPDEs this season.
