BSM G87 Lowered on KW and BBS LM

Wanted to share the new wheel setup as a thread here. Lowered on KW HAS and 10/12 Macht Schnell spacers. Really changes the whole car.

Drop specs:
Front: 720mm to 687mm
Rear: 718mm to 698mm

Looks great!

Most fitment correction I've seen uses 12mm/15mm spacers for what people have described as a flush fit. You went with 10/12. To your eye, would you say it's flush, or were you going for something slightly more recessed than flush?

Either way, nicely done.

I think for truly flush you can go 12/15.. these are slightly bigger than stock so I’d have to see if there is any rub.. I’ll def report back!

Interesting with 33 mm drop in front but only 20 in back. Is that typical to have that much difference?

Hmm probably not so typical but I’ve heard similar setups in g80/82 setups. We purposefully left a bit in the rear to see how it settled. Once I extend the spacer size I’ll see if I can close the gap further. I personally don’t like anything close to slammed so the way it sits for me is perfect atm.

I'm the same, want medium amount lower but not slammed. My M2 is actually in the shop RN getting HAS installed, so I'm curious how similar the front/rear will end up once things are leveled out.

Your setup looks perfect.
