Thanks, look forward to it. I'm curious as I run 19x9.5 +45 with 255/30 and have the tiniest bit of poke, yet you say you run 18x9.5 +35 255/35 and somehow have no poke?

The driving aggressive part was meant for your tires rubbing. Not the camber plates.

My RE71 and RSRR tires are a wide 255 and there is no way I could run a +35. Zoom in and you can see there is no room left in the back when driving VERY agressive lol

Love it. I daily my car in sport+.
I'm a bit of a more aggressive driver and it holds up well. For as stiff as I have it, it's well balanced for me to have fun on weekends and still enjoy it on a commute. I HIGHLY recommend doing the custom swift spring option.

Any feedback on spring rates? I see BC spec is 7k/12k. I plan to order soon, and this looks like a good solution that comes with camber plates as well in front.
Have had BC on other cars and never had a complaint in relation to value for the dollar. Would like to run a 245/35-18 square set up on 18x8.5 +35 or +38. Weekend use and occasional track days. |

It sounds like you're targeting the same setup as me. I started tracking my M235i about four years ago. After about a year, I bought a 2013 MX5 to preserve my daily driver. The MX5 is an absolute joy on the track. But I'm now thinking about returning to the M235i for variety and now that the value is down a bit. The BC racing coilovers seem like a relatively economical way of stiffening the suspension and adding camber for the track. I have read that the KWs require a fair bit of offset to clear the spring seats. Have you come across any data for the BCs? Like you, I was hoping that a set of 18x85 +38 (APEKS ARC8) would clear with square 245. |
