Canadian F10 lowered with 21, sorta maybe ish...
UPDATE PAGE 2
Here is my F10, not the best pictures and I'm not completely thrilled with the turn out but I still have a front lip and roof wrap to do.. I find it isn't "mean" enough. I think I would like it more if I could run a skinnier tire with a stretch. The wheels are slightly poking which is good, hopefully they don't rub too much. 2013 528i Xdrive My mods H&R springs (half coil cut) 21" Niche Monoforged (brushed face, polished window and a slight grey tint) with Hankook tires Carbon diffuser Custom dual exhaust Gloss black grill Front lip (not installed yet) Last edited by Sticky4l; 04-18-2014 at 08:03 PM.. |

That's exactly what's at the paint shop

I don't remember the offsets. Running 285/30 on the rear, was hoping for more stretch. They stick our about half inch and will for sure rub on a good bump. I want to say the rears are a 29... |

I know right?? Kids these days. Was hoping to cut more but not with the back as it is now. I may have to man up and do so rear quarter pulling muscle exercises.

How much different than before they were cut? I want the front a little lower on mine and have been thinking of cutting but don't wanna compromise ride. I wish we had the coilover option for xdrive

Not sure I cut them right away. I assume the thickness of the spring so about 1/2"...

Car looks good, but I understand what you are saying that it isn't mean enough. I think if you did a white/black theme it would pull it off a little better. Color matched side markers and blinker trim, paint the trim on the door handles black, tint windows, small roof spoiler, side skirt extensions, debadge trunk and do white/black roundels.

Sticky, your ride looks great. I like it ... a helluva lot . A couple of things might give it a little edgier look - how about a rear window spoiler, carbon fibre mirror caps, carbon fibre roundels, a darker window tint, and painted brake calipers. I absolutely lurve that half coil cut. The drop is purrfection. And the rims ... sweet as honey!

Car is sitting nice. Rear offset appears to be a tad aggressive. I think if you lose the chrome accents in favor of color matched or black you will add some agressiveness to your ride. Well done so far.

Thanks for the compliments guys, it's starting to grow on me.
I'm wrapping the roof black and it'll do all the chrome trim in white. Plus once I install the front lip it may be better. It rubs but not too badly, here you can see the rear fitment (pre-tires). I'm considering adding camber and cutting another half coil... |

Very nice f10, but the tires looks a bit big, guess they're 35 and 30 profile, and not 30 and 25.

Ya tires look a little big. I went with 245/35 and 285/30 because the roads are terrible in Montreal, plus they have no armour all.
Here are some updated pix, roof and chrome wrap completed. |

Ouch, do you know what offset you're running?
