Hoping a 315/30r20 will fit in the rear because 305 is not doing the job with p4s
Is there an opportunity to custom tune some of the torque out to avoid traction issues? I hate the idea of removing power but I also lean more towards a civilized driving experience as I progress through the years. But I also see how it could be fun to light those tires up and just send it.

Yes you can do that in the OTS map as well as customs tunes. I’m torn- I like the recklass abandon vibes of a manual with major traction loss. Major Dodge Viper vibes

But at the same time there’s a point where it just becomes a job to drive. So we will see how this all turns out lol.

Very excited to see how this clutch feels in comparison to OEM.

I will install the clutch and my autosolutions SSK at the same time and update here on drivability on a stage 2 ACN91 tune as well as running flex fuel.
I'm very curious as this will be my setup except I'd go with DI flex fuel. May make a little less power but I don't want to have to deal with mixing fuels at the pump.

That is pretty funny. For the record I have no problem with people that build their cars to produce tons of power. I just have PTSD from being pissed with my previous B58 powered BMW that with a basic stage II tune was a sloppy mess. I'm being cautious with my M2 as I don't want to repeat the mess from my previous car.

A bit of unusable power and traction issues. The joy of all the low end torque from the B58. Instead of committing to making that work with that car (bigger/stickier tires, suspension work, tweak the tuning, etc) i decided to move to the G87.

Man.. definitely my new favourite colour for the G87. The R34 vibes are off the charts. Would look awesome with some gold / bronze JDM wheels.

Took a chance on a LCI wheel from AliExpress. 8/10, CF weave and fitment could be better but all functionalities work and leather quality is good. Jealous the 23-24 didn’t get this. Transform the interior
