Thanks for these! Literally just ordered the MSS HAS kit and 15mm spacers for all four corners. Gonna sell the ECS flush kit on here since I never put them on (was supposed to tomorrow). Decided it best to do 15mm x4 and the HAS kit instead 😏👍

I just wanted them asap and was told elsewhere that R44 can get them to me in two days; that and their price was right...either way, my bad, Ben!

Do you have a good shop where you live to install the MSS??

I did but I'm not sure now...I used to have Turner Motorsports in Amesbury, MA do all my work but they closed shop. I couldn't even find someone to do the spaces for "liability reasons," and had an appointment this afternoon with my local BMW to do it, as they said no problem and it wouldn't effect my warrenty..go figure...but I canceled that appointment since I decided to go with 15/15 spacers and the MSS kit....so my plan is to call them and see if they will do the MSS kit as well.....but before I do, I'm going to see if I can find another shop just to give my business to someone smaller than a BMW dealer.

Out here in SoCal, shops are fairly prevalent and willing to do whatever it takes. The key here is to find the right techs who know shit vs the mousehouse guys.

I agree but I'm also stuck between a rock and hard place....there is no one else that knows BMW's around southern NH/Northern MA that I'm aware of, and I don't want to go to place unfamiliar with BMWs for obvious reasons...and while a dealer is obvious familiar, I'm not sure having them do a spring job is the best idea either.

The rear is easy with no trunk access required.

Just install the MSS, spacers, and drive for about 200 miles and then align at a shop with the laser setup and a vin scanner that will download the specs. RWD is about 45-60 minutes faster as no damper removal.

Well to be fair, from rack up to rack down its more along the lines of 2 hours and then the shop might want to make a little so fair billing is circa 3 hours or so. Ive watched Ben do the process maybe 6x's or more and a shop that says 3 hours is legit.

It's 3-4 hour job at max. I did DIY for the front in less than two hours. Rears took it to a shop, and paid $120. I wasn't able to get the bolts off on jack stand for the rear. $1750

Hey All, I'm pretty sure it's recommended to use "anti seize" when doing spacers....is there a recommended kind?

15front / 12 mm rear Macht schnell spacers over Pzero. Heated fins and pushed slightly to alleviate front rub. ZERO rubbing and on AST lowering springs sourced from EAS here on boards — VERY happy.

So I kind of low key.. selfishly want to try an 18F 15R. I think it can take it!!! Without a doubt can take the 15 in the rear. I’d call this a square-ish set up currently, especially as the front settles… I will say the poke in the rear for some reason comes across more aggressive in 1st person? Could be just confirmation bias too. |
