Didn't measure! Probably the same distance from sport height to loading height?

Looks great! Here's a shot of mine with the bicolor on summer tires and spacers.

bforbrian · 04-27-2021, 10:19 PM

BC Forged RS43 in brushed dark black tint
22x10
22x11.5

Yes, they're similar to dubsesd's, but they're actually a different model, and a different finish! I knew I wanted multi-spoke, just not as many as the RZ15 model.

Next mod will be the X5M roof spoiler, which has already been painted BSM and wrapped in Xpel PPF. Picking up this weekend!

Thank you! I'm on lowering links with factory air. The lowest setting is probably about 0.75-1.0" lower.

after you installled your lowering link to your air suspension, did you have to get camber correction on it? im thinking of doing mine but i dont want my tire to wear out unevenly.

Didn't get any camber correction, but I don't mind a little bit of camber

Your car looks awesome! Quick question…does your bumpshox protector block any view from the front camera?

It doesn't block the view when you're in the car looking at the screen, but when I look at the remote 3D view front picture, you can see the top part of it.
