Anyone ride coils? Do you have to cut the strut housing?

Only if you want to shorten them. On my GCs I just cut the spring perch off and welded on the D ring.

And how much travel do you have before you hit the bump stops?

Not much, but if I had much more my x-brace would hit the ground when it bottomed out. There's no point in having 2+ inches of travel if you're gonna be scraping the ground at full compression.

I cut an inch our of mine and added M3 sway bar links.

I was just gonna keep experimenting with other BMW wheels, now that I realized that they're 6 series wheels...meh. I do indeed love my wheels, gonna take the caps off actually since one of them is busted (seller never told me) and it barely locks on the wheel center.

Because back then someone thought they had a revolutionary tire idea.

Obviously it didn't work out, haha.
