LOL. Once you get the RUST off, I think your right, it's less visible.

Now you remind me of something...I had my M2C wheels painted HRE Matte Gray. It must have been the exact color of brake dust because i never saw any. Didn't know it was this much of an issue and I also never washed it in the 17 months I owned it and it never saw rain...so my rotors never flash rusted.

Sport
Not sure. Going to wait a bit. Maybe at the 1200 mile service. Deciding on 10 mm spacers right now.

Another pic from today. Should look totally different after another round of mods next week. Including the Fish Bowl look being addressed on Tuesday.

life is too short, Install now. Nothing magical happens at 1200 miles and the dealerships don't care.

Guys can always do the MPERFORMANCE HAS Kit. They where designed to work with the BMW adaptive suspension. They are for the M3/M4 but they will fit fine.

True. But it seems to be twice the price of H&R and KW HAS? Doesn't H&R make these for bmw?

The parts look identical, so they are probably made by KW, but the spring rates are different. In another thread on the m3/m4 forums, a poster spoke with KW about the difference, and he determined that the KW spring rates were higher. Interestingly, even KW recommended the MP HAS over their own product for a daily driver.

Check out the brake dust on the front wheels. This is going to kill me. Brake dust thread coming shortly.

Looks great, not too low but just eliminates that 'jacked' up stock look.

I've got Eibach springs in another vehicle and they were an exceptional upgrade for very little cost. Might have to do the same with the CS.
