I really liked the Fr Black but to your point, the longer lasting look will be the BSM.

The real reason I didnt like the LCI was the sport seats, I wanted a more difficult egress and ingress seating arrangement LOL hence the buckets.

Joking but I really love the buckets; and the overall dynamics of the CS from a software and hardware standpoint.

Car was filthy as fuck when I got home and my car wash guy is coming tomorrow so Ill post up after that but it came out very very good.

The MSS Hybrid is so compliant over bumps that I actually think Sport EDC might be too soft and instead Ill use Sport Plus.

The car looks great along with the ER mid pipe, SST valve controller, 15mm spacers squared and some other cosmetics.

Thanks Man!

I assume a straight forward install, alignment and no rub with the spacers that's great. I was worried when I got the email from BMW.

Looking forward to the pics.

I will call Ben on Monday to order a set!

yep you are good with exactly that

I did have a small rubbing on the inner front fender only on 3/4 turn in reverse (reverse only) and this is a well known issue with Pirellis not PS4's. Ben did a 5 min mod where we cut a small piece of plastic out and its gone. Its no visible to anyone unless you take the wheel off and its not a mechanical hinderance at all.

Car wash dude is late so I snapped a few AFTER and BEFORES in similar locations for perspective. The ride is still that amazing CS dialed ride but dare I say maybe more comfortable than the OEM springs due to the the MSS tender spring setup in the rear and 3 stage in the front. Either way it drove really well home on the same roads I always taking coming back from r33_RGSport shop.

Ben killed it again and even did some nice 7 dollar vinyl wrap on on those orange and rear red reflectors...

How do you compare the ride on the M4CS with the MSS to the M3CS on the KW HAS? Do you feel a difference, I know the MSS is more money and can go lower I believe?

Hard to discern as I have not driven the M3 CS since I got this car but if my memory and driving feel is still in my old brain:

The M3 with the CS is slightly more taut in Sport Plus and Sport vs the MSS in the M4 CS under the same settings and roads.

The MSS has the rear tender spring which KW doesnt have; this allows for more absorption of the road imperfections and the MSS front has 3 stages for even more endurance. The KW is still a fantastic piece and there is a reason why BMW uses KW to black label their MPP HAS but Im very happy with both.

If I could get either one and money isnt the challenge- the MSS is my way cause roads are not perfect not matter one lives. And yes the MSS goes lower in the front/rear than KW so you have that option too.

You have had and have much more dynamic cars than I have- I think you will appreciate the CS software and hardware and especially for the price.

Its a great daily ripper that to me, is more dynamic than my R8 or GTS. I have the poor mans Ferrari in the C8Z06 and its amazing. Thats my fave car.

I loved my 2020 R8 V10 as a daily but the trunk was so useless. Had the best sound of all, had a custom titanium exhaust made by Brogue and was just epic, lost the car in a hurricane.

Also, the new Z06 is so good and many people will soon see the bargain it is compared to the new ZR1 and others.

Ben did a great job on my mss hybrid kit. The ride is a night and day difference over the h&r super sport springs. Car feels like it’s on stock springs. Would recommend to anyone who wants to lower this platform.
