Alas, my custom spec BBS E88's finally are on the car. As I've mentioned there was a goal and these were always in the cards. I ordered them on 5/1 and I got to pick them up from BBS on 10/1, just a short 5 month wait. Without swapping out the stock brakes and proper coilovers, I wouldn't be able to run these.

Most folks would just go with standard specs, standard face and call it a day. I knew I wanted more and I wanted something that most would not do on their M2/M2C specfic to E88s.

I knew I wanted 2.5" lips front and rear, there was an option to do 3" lips but the lip/face design was not something I was after and I believe this a cleaner look.

End result is as follows:

18x10.5
18x11

Michelin Pilot Sport Cup2 Connect (240)
265/35
295/30





Michelins are a bit more fitment friendly as they come with a rounded sidewall vs the likes of a Yokohama A052 which has a more squared sidewall.

I haven't even touched my suspension settings yet to further dial this setup in. I'll be taking them off at the end of the month to do some suspension upgrades but I definitely wanted to rock these while it's still nice out here in GA!

slicer and I worked well together on this, we look forward to seeing more F87's with this type of setup. This is #slicerspec at its finest!
