Few snaps. Nice and shiny!

Looks like the MSS has settled a bit up front. Pretty happy with the drop. What do you think?

Looks great brutha!

You could do the mss mod for a perfect stance but then you'll have to really start driving carefully, it's a give and a take.

Omg that looks good. This paint looks so good in the shade.

Personally I would raise the rear slightly to even out the rake. Have noticed this in general with the standard MSS setups. The rear is pretty low completely eliminating any wheel gap and making the front look higher than it really is.

M3's have always been lower in the rear to achieve 50/50 weight distribution, because the engine makes front much heavier obviously

I'm not a big rake guy. It makes the back end lighter too but hopefully the front settles a bit more. Have only done a few hundred miles on the MSS

I did the same when I originally dropped my car with MSS-- I kept the wheel gap integrity as close as possible as the rear on the G80 has a lesser wheel gap than the front out of the box.

Salespunk · 10-18-2021, 12:50 PM

My understanding is that a lot of the front end height is driven by EU pedestrian safety standards. Adjusting the rake by 10-15 mm front to rear will not affect the handling balance in any significant way.

Either way, all good, just my opinion which is worth what you pay for it (zero). Car looks awesome!

These back roads have the worst surface. Its extremely rough asphalt, like aggregate with tar sprayed over...Horrible traction, and noisy a hell to drive on. But you cant beat the miles of farm/ranch land and occasional twisty sections. I just leave it in 4th gear and drown out the road noise.
