Anthony, I have 15/18 MS spacers w/ H&R springs on my current E92 and they sit perfectly flush on the stock 19 wheels. How would the 15/18 and H&R setup fit on my upcoming ZCP E92?

How does the CEL delete work? No tuning required to run a primary cat delete?

The delete-r simply sends a FF code (every 10 minutes) to clear out codes caused by the HiFlow converters. It is merely a convenience to keep the interior lamp from turning on with no effects on performance.

Tuning is not required - but significant gains have been shown afterwards. Tuning is also an alternate way to deal with the CEL issue.

Well, the 15/12 combo on this ZCP was pretty flush. I don't think you could run a 18/15 combo on the ZCP without rubbing, especially if it's lowered or if you're running different tires.

Wow, those tips look amazing. The one thing I always hated about the akrapovic was the weird brownish-colored tips, but this takes care of that and then some!
