If you drop it, they will come... I need to see some closer pics on how the rear wheels sit in the fender. +32 sounds super aggressive!

Lowering is for kids. Looks good the way it is and it won't ride like poo.

I am worried about losing ride quality but I do love the look of a lowered car! Also big thanks to LT, modding my bimmers since 2008

Gotta say, I didn't like the wheels in your original thread, but in these pics, they look damn good.

I am more shocked at the fact that someone paid to have these things installed. A wrench and some elbow grease (in this case none at all) and its an hour job. Prob the easiest $ LT just made haha

Painted reflector installed = $0
Mount and Balance tires = $80
Installed wheels = $0
BMW performance kidney grills with install = $120

I think at that rate, he didn't mind.

No worries! I was only kidding about pictures...

The car rides great. It's almost too nice... It rides pretty much exactly like stock, it just looks better since it's lowered.

I just took it to a track day event at the Streets of Willow and it handles great too. I'll be back to LTMW for more work for sure.

Yea guys Long provides great service at fair prices. I am Indian and fit the stereotype, so I live for discounts.

As far as suspension, feel and comfort is as important as stance to me so I am not rushing into suspension decision. I got the BBS wheels for 1900 brand new with caps. No way I could pass that up. Put them on right away so I can sell my m sport wheels for top dollar. Anybody interested in M400 wheels PM me.
