LOL most people don't even know what the M3 is, let alone a small suspension difference. Can't even begin to tell you how many people think my car is just a 328.

That also ignores the possibility of having people/things in the car that would make it sit lower.

But hey, what else can we do on this site except argue?

Here's an example of a outdoor urinal they just installed next to a muni train platform. So instead of solving the homeless industrial complex issue, that causes the city to smell like urine and feces, they decided to allow them to stand at the station and have their piss poor aim piss all over your feet while you walk by:

one man's piss poor aim is another man's shoe shine

Besides, you live in one of the most beautiful cities in the world...
Care to move to Calcutta or Mumbai?

I would love to take you up on this....

You know, I wager there are sometimes less crime in Dharavi than Tenderloin...Some of the city supervisors want to turn the city to a 3rd world slum. Gentrification is a dirty word to them.

Time to spend another $40k to get a proper ZCP car with intangible performance benefits.

there, the end of your non-ZCP denial, ending in an outburst of silly and irrational emotions. Textbook reaction.

who said they need to know the model of the car to see that one sits lower. And i'm going to pass on the fantasy that m3 owners routinely drive their car with 2 morbidly obese passengers on the back seats. Right.

no, but most drive with two hookers in the trunk. Have you taken into account the height offset from that weight? EJT86 Beemdog BzsBimmerAmirsm3 can attest.

Got these installed today, stock height.

If you think two attractive women's weight can make a 1 cm ride height difference you are talking about a russian Lada not an M3.

i have prior very active lives around here going back to 2006, maybe rehashing that old joke makes you feel you've been around ? not even close, lol.

Truth. The little ladies in the back prematurely wore my shocks out.

two hookers in trunk. preparing to drop them off in the middle of a lake.

stock springs.

Man you guys are hilarious. Thanks to those that posted their stock spring/zcp wheel combos. It alleviated allot of my fear.

I'm dropping the car off Friday at eas to put the stock springs back in. Now the next question is: do I take the spacers off too!!?!?!?!?!?!

Thanks!

Do you have spacers on your wheel setup or is that stock offset?

[nitrojunky]

stock offset.

here are some different views:







i think the car looks good with the wheels. i'll be doing some KW V3s in the near future, but it won't be for the looks.

also, something i didn't expect with the wheels is that as they get dusted, instead of looking dirty, IMO they just look gunmetal lol.

Hey thanks so much for the additional pictures. Car looks absolutely fantastic and you've galvanized me to take the spacers off too. I can sell the b&g springs and machnell spacers as a tandem item.

I agree about the dust too. When they're clean though they're blindingly gray! They don't look nearly as bad dirty as some other wheels.

I appreciate you taking the time to post up some more pictures for me. Thanks.

Definitely hookers in the trunk in these pics, I can tell based on lack of wheel gap
