My M3s not so cool new ride height.

Car does look a little off with the height raised. Def dependent on the wheel/tire as well.

I can't believe you were never on coils. How did you get it so low? Did you cut a coil? What suspension/spring are you on now?

I always look forward to your threads.. keep the pics coming!

Did you paint it or buy it that way already done?
Orange is a great color on M3's I always thought. Whats the under hood and interior look like.
Would love to see it.

What exact color is your car? Henna or ?

Car is beautiful by the way and just noticed the M logo in the grille needs to be raised up one. :)

ohhh crap!!!! your right! the rear logo was EXACTLY measured as I found somewhere on S14, and it is off too...... already pulled it back off. Gonna have to fix the front first thing tomorrow.

The car is electric orange. it's a FORD european Focus ST color.

I loved teh lowered. Still looks absolutely tits though.

its been awhile!! Looks so nice man!
I see what you see though. Stretch tires just don't fit when there's wheel gap.

here's a great comparison.

I think it looks great at that height. To me a cars height isn't as important as wheel to fender gap and tire fitment. I personally like to not be extremely low and then fill the wheel gap up with a meaty tire.

Thats what I am trying to do with mine. I think its almost there. I would like the front to be about 5mm lower and the rear about 10mm higher

yeah.. the car is shit...
trade?
LOL

It's actually amazing.

:eeek:
epic car, is epic

[ChaseN]

IMO it looks great. Any lower and I think it would look to bling bling for an M3. Leave that for the kids with rusted etas on no name coilovers and ESMs. Oh and VWs.

[litu]

Perfect :)

[mikeedler]

^sure did, I could lower it again, seeing as the next TÜV visit will be in 2 years, just don't want the car quite as low as it was, but lower than now. BTW, the car isn't on coilovers, so it isn't that easy to just adjust the height.

[Roysneon]

Did you have to put it back up for TUV?

[dougie30]

your car is PERFECT
