Thank you for reading. I have been excited to share my build for a while.

Wheels take care of the fitment offset wise, really the perks of going custom. I am running KW Height adjustable spring, tried HR's SS lowering springs and it wasn't a good decision. Happy with my KW's

That was what I was hoping to hear. I hate using spacers.
Your fitment looks perfect. I want to duplicate it on my car
Can you confirm the wheel sizes.

The stock fronts are 9.5J x 19” ET20mm with 275/35-19 tyres
If you are only going with a +8 does that mean the ET is 8mm or 28mm(20 stock +8mm)?

*I am not an expert in this subject so if my question is dumb I apologize)

He wrote his offsets backwards.

Fronts are 19x9.5 +5, the rears are 20x11 +8.

In this case with the stock wheels that's the equivalent of running a 15mm spacer up front (going from +20 to +5). I'm doing the same wheels but 19x10 +11 front, which is the same fitment on the fender size. Each half inch added to wheel width is like subtracting 6 from the offset. 1"=12mm, 6mm inside, 6mm fender side.

Rears go from 20x10.5 +20 stocks to these being 20x11 +8. So -6 for the 0.5" width increase, and a -12 offset decrease, bringing it to the equivalent of running an 18mm spacer in the rear w/ stocks.

To summarize, his fitment is like running +15F, +18R spacers with stock wheels.

Hope this makes sense!

Just wanted to drop a quick update on some mods I’ve done on my M2 G87.

These changes have seriously leveled up both the performance and look of my ride, and I’m hyped to share the details


Remote Coding by kubax86
bimmer_remote (Instagram)

So, I hit up my boy Bimmer_remote on Instagram for some remote coding magic. Here’s what we did:

CSL Diff Coding
CSL Steering Coding
CSL EDC Coding
Airbag Light Coded Out
Seat Occupancy Light Coded Out
Amber Headlight Corner Light Coded Out

CSL Diff, Steering, and EDC Coding:
In my opinion, the CSL is the peak of what BMW engineers wanted the car to feel like. With the CSL diff, steering, and EDC coding, my M2 now drives like a dream. It’s super responsive and engaging, making me feel like I’ve got the best OEM setup possible. The performance boost is insane – you gotta try it to believe it.

Airbag and Seat Occupancy Lights Coded Out:
I swapped in some Recaro bucket seats, so I needed to get rid of the seatbelt and occupancy lights on the dash. Coding those out made everything look so much cleaner. No more annoying dash lights!

Amber Headlight Corner Light Coded Out:
Also decided to code out the amber corner lights on the headlights. Personally, I think it looks way cleaner without them. The front end now has a sleek, sharp look that I love.


If you’re thinking about getting some coding done, hit up Bimmer_remote. I’ve got a 10% coupon code for you: bmwm24. Highly recommend their work.


Swapping Out My Aftermarket Shift Knob

Old Shift Knob:
I was rocking a Black Forest Industries shift knob, but it just wasn’t cutting it. It felt too big and clunky, and the fit wasn’t perfect. It had this weird “click” that didn’t inspire confidence and didn’t really match the car’s interior vibe.

https://blackforestindustries.com/collections/bmw-manual-knobs/products/gs2-alcantara-bmw-manual?variant=14463698305068



New Shift Knob:

I swapped it out for a custom-made M Performance shifter. Followed the guide on Machinewithsoul’s page and ordered it through IND Distribution. Took about a week and a half to get here. Clicks right it, like OEM.... it's perfect.


This new shifter is a game-changer. It’s so much more comfortable and feels perfectly connected to the car. Shifts are smooth and precise, and it looks straight-up amazing. It’s made a huge difference in my driving experience.



All in all, I’m stoked with these mods. The remote coding by Bimmer_remote has transformed the driving feel to match that CSL perfection. And the custom shift knob? It’s the cherry on top, enhancing both the feel and aesthetics of the interior. If you’re considering any of these upgrades, I can’t recommend them enough.
