Your thoughts on my ride height / BC RACING coilovers - Love them so far
What are your thoughts on my ride height
I daily the car for the most part. Roads that I travel aren't too bad 7/10 mostly. |

How's handling with the setup and are you planning on getting an alignment once you've settled on your final ride height? Car looks awesome by the way and I like the house too! |

Thanks so much - rear is sitting slightly lower - Doing the common reverse rake BMW thing... I might raise the rear 0.15"

Alignment for sure in about 200km once it settles more and final height is achieved. Thanks for the compliment - Car handles great - exact as OEM but no wheel gap |

Looks awesome! My only suggestion is to get rid of the reverse rake by lowering the front or raising the rear depending on how much you rub.
I’m interested in getting a set of as BCs as well. Did you get Swift springs too? I’m curious to get your opinion how they ride. |

I did not get the Swifts - They ride great. Dampening was set right in the middle at first - then I adjusted 3 clicks to the harder side and its absolutely perfect right now. BC did ship me the wrong top mounts for the M2 COMP so make sure you clearly specify its a M2 COMP - they might ignore the COMP part but make sure you say it over and over lol - Over all a good experience and love the ride minus having the wrong parts sent on the first attempt |

Mine sits the same on the BCs with Swift springs. Its lower than I ever thought id be able to safely run on the street as a daily driver. If you take a measurement the ride height might actually be the same despite the rear looking lower. I have experienced some bottoming at speed but nothing I can't live with. Your car looks soooo good. Any input on dampening adjustments? I am running 18 clicks from soft front, 20 in the rear. Might go up to 23 out back, I find the ride quality improves the stiffer I turn the adjusters

Too low for me. Once the wheels aren’t even close to concentric in the arches it looks wrong.
