First drive of M135i since lockdown.....
Had enough of the car being tucked up in the garage so tax went back on this morning and off out I went this afternoon in pursuit of completing the run in period!
First time I have been able to give the Potenzas a good heat cycle (under 4.5k rpm 😉 and I can confirm that they are shite! Squealing all over the place on my favourite stretches of road and don’t give the same amount of feedback as my previous MPSS. Going to try and get a price on selling them to my nearest part worn garage and swapping out ASAP. Seeing as I am a Furloughed for the foreseeable I reckon I could be on for some great drives! |

So.. Finally I lowered my car! The eibach lowering springs are lower than what I would have wanted but this is what eibach offers worldwide. 30mm fronts and 15mm rear. The car feels lower than 15mm at the rear.
Initial impressions: Steering is much lighter and easier to maneuver (this is due to the nose heavy stance), cars quick to turn in and doesn't feel heavy. Almost like i have lost a few kilos , on rough roads the Eibach springs are more comfortable than standard springs (less busy but theres a better feel of the road) and best of all I can get over bumps!

Drove the 135i for the first time in 2 weeks today, it's fast, deceptively fast and it was pouring rain while I was pressing on. Epic fractions and all no fuss.
