Very subtle, put just enough to remove some wheel gap and make the ride a little stiffer. I will be tracking it next year. Can't wait to see how it handles.

Don't have photo's of the newest set up yet because the springs need to settle and then i can re adjust height. Here are some photos for comparison if it helps anyone. KW HAS 10mm all around (not my car) H&R 12mm front 10mm rear (fairly new, may not have been be fully settled) H&R 15mm all around (fully settled) I can report no rubbing or bottoming out with any of my set ups but YMMV. Alignment is key. Tire brands probably matter as well because of side wall profile and thickness. I have contis. Last edited by AndrewC1989; 11-21-2017 at 11:53 PM.. |

H&R are 30mm F & 20mm R & when spaced 10mm in front the tire will contact the inner fender well and the nub that connects the fender to bumper under hard braking and bump compression.

No creaking on my car. And I have done a few track days also.

I find the ride perfect with the H&R springs. Very good option from a price/quality perspective.

Can you explain what you mean by perfect ride? Can you compare it to stock?

I was under the impression that merely doing springs would kill the struts on this car.

Seems to me the way to do it is to get a good set of coil-over's right off the bat and save future headaches. |

Lowers the center of gravity (you can definitely feel it). Also, you feel less body roll on the track. May be a little stiffer than stock but that's the price to pay for a stiffer/lower ride. And for looks, definitely looks better.

No issues so far on my M2 so far and I do some track days per year.

That's still very low amount of usage. Fairly less than the the yearly mileage that the average person drives, according to US highway stats
