From what I understand, BBS does not have enough offset for the larger M brakes, so spacers are needed. Its usually on the fronts for the companies who do not do custom offsets.
No offense,this one didnt upgrade brake right, for my Opinion he don't need it , or I'm wrong. Cus I want ch-r on mine too, so i did some research, or I'm wrong

The car didn't need spacers, this was purely a cosmetic mod. I felt the front wheels sat too far under the fenders. I usually prefer not to use spacers but I am very happy with the result!

Are you serious? I know that Fuel just dropped recently in the but " come on man? !"

The e9x is one of the worst gas guzzlers BMW has produced. It can never be considered " practical". Absolutely it's a a special car but .... practical?

Saw this on their Instagram yesterday. Absolutely beautiful! The wheels definitely give it that aggressive edge

Agree on the concavity!! I'm sure the M2 will address this but a little more fender would have gone a long way with wheel and tire options!

I agree on the red caps and may look to change out that when I get bored later on.
Ricfutures Haha, I saw your car featured on EAS on FB. Looks absolutely amazing. Only thing I would change would be putting back in the BMW wheel center caps, but other than that, pretty much perfection. I am moving back to Orange County next month, canyon drives?

Would love to but I'm moving to Seattle this week! Will definitely miss the SoCal driving experiences!

I think that with all the mods this IS The LCI (albeit a bit pricey)

Sharp look. I think the Mperf spoiler completes the look, have all the rest save that on my vehicle.

First of all your car looks beautiful with all the mods. It's the same combination as mine.

That front lip you have on who makes that IND? I really like it. Your list of modifications was a bit unclear with the lip.

Thanks!

Just curious how you like the car compared to the E92? I've been thinking of making the same swap. The M235i seems to be the right size. I may just wait till the M2 debuts before I make up ky mind.

Love everything you've done with the car!! Beautiful color as well.

Can you help me understand the greater "practicality" of the M235i versus the E92 M3?
