No, it’s a design that wouldn’t work without sacrificing surface area, which no company is going to do.

I put EMD springs on yesterday, I also went to see if 400m wheels would fit over my brakes, so I can have some roller wheels while I send my 437s off to get a color change.

While we were at it we swapped my buddy’s Ferric Gray 437s onto my OG. Safe to say it looks awesome. I’m excited to see my 437s once they’re finished. Hopefully next weekend.

Gorgeous.

Just installed and reviewed the OEM BMW Fire Extinguisher from OEMExtinguishers, check out the review here: https://f87.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=2102185


But overall it is a really nice mod to have for any BMW owner, fit and finish is excellent since it is an OEM part.

I don't want to nit pick, but you shouldn't support the car via it's front control or tension arms. That will damage the bushings.

Got my Titan7 T-S5s installed this weekend. Glad I went with the silver, good contrast.

I'm liking the wheels, hate that my 245/265 tires are super new so I had to reuse them, they look a bit stretched on the 9.5/10.5" wheels, but another year or so of mileage and I can fix that lol.

I do agree 100% but I could not figure out how to jack it up from the front area. Could you post how to jack the car up thanks.

There is a jack point in the center of the strengthening plate, underneath the engine right by the oil drain area

I drive one of the tires on a small wood block just to get the front end high enough to get a jack underneath there, but once the car is high enough, you can place jackstands under both front checkpoints directly behind the front wheels

Then, you can remove the jack entirely… like when you’re changing the oil…

You can jack the front up using the center jacking point. You can jack the rear up using the rear subframe.


I personally would not put claw style jack stands under the plastic jack pads, I would use a flat top jack stand and metal jack pad adapter (I personally use the BMS one and have a review for it).

Hi, can check it up. It’s not a problem. I know that there are checkpoints but once the car is up Where do I place the jacks I placed the rear jacks on where you check the car from but could you give me a picture of where I should place the front jacks or should I say thank you

Can you post a picture of the location, please?

If you want to do it right you will need 4 flat top jack stands and metal jack pad adapters.

Are the Ferric 437s just solid color paint or do they still have the machined finished areas like the black ones? They look tremendous on the MG. Makes me think seriously about doing the same thing, especially if I'd no longer have to worry about curbing the machined parts and the PITA refinishing that requires.

it is still two toned. the areas of the wheel (inner barrel and inner spokes) that were normally black on the stock wheels are just a matte gray. the otter lip and spoke is still machined aluminimum.

In my opinion a really nice color that works with the mineral gray and LBB color option. The stock black/alum finish works best with alpine white and black cars for contrast.

As I found out, the stock shifter on my M2 weighted almost as much as the Urotuning. Feels more top heavy though, and the shifts feel more direct. Looks great

Or go big and get quick jacks (LOVE mine) or a proper lift if you have the space. :⁠-⁠P

I REALLY like that look. I tend to enjoy a more spherical shifter too.
