If you're wanting that much, contact Plated, they have the best spacers out there.

I’m curious why you guys are raising your seats when the rest of the world seems to think the 2 series is too tall and upright

The seats in the CS are lower than those in the C.
I’m tall so no problems but if you are shorter I could see why. |

Yeah, if you measure them and/or investigate it closely, that's not the case. The seats are the ZCP ones from the M4, and the bases on them are identical to the non-ZCP seats...as in identical part numbers. Only the backrest is changed for the ZCP/CS seats. The parts for the lower frame, padding, and seat cover are all identical across the board.

I'm 5'7" and I keep the seat all the way lowered and no issues. Personally myself, I like sitting lower with that gocart feeling. Ngl, when it gets sketchy in parking garages, etc. I will lean forward just to be safe and make sure I'm seeing everything. But having front pdc definitely makes life easier too

It's not different. At least in the three CS' I've seen alignment results from...they all are spot on spec for the M2C at -1.5 +/- 0.5 degrees. The actual spec is in degree/minutes -1°29' +/-0°30'. For a while, people suspected BMW used the camber correction hubs available which add 0.5° negative camber, but no completely stock CS has ever shown -2.0°.

So BMW is saying the CS has a nominal front camber value that is 19 minutes more negative? 19/60 = 0.3 degrees, so CS should show -1.8 on the rack versus -1.5 on the M2C. How did they obtain that since the camber correction hubs add 30 minutes of negative camber (i.e. nominal value 1'59" afterwards). And if so, why are CS owners posting alignment results such as this one with almost spot on 1.5 degrees (1'28"L, 1'32"R) which is the same as the M2C?
