I know tell me about it.. I obviously don't know anything about the physics behind it..


So what is the most aggressive looking offset I can run, for an Xi, without compromising the car or the tires?

id put some 10-15 mm spacers on the rear to fill the fender gap and give it a staggered look

Search for "where to buy an mtech rear bumper". You can go to the dealership, LTBMW, realoem.com to name a few. I guess it's better that you vs starting a new thread asking this....

Well since we're on the topic of M conversion I didn't see it as thread jacking and why start a new thread when I could post my question in a existing thread on a similar subject.

Or you could just keep your opinion to yourself next time.

You're hilarious. YOU said that you are off topic, which would be thread jacking, and I went ahead and SEARCHED FOR YOU and gave you 3 resources on where to get it. I even told you what key words I used into search engines on how to do it. But now we are both off topic so I'll leave it at that.

Car is looking great, really nice work so far
Could definitely use to get larger spacers for the rear or a 9.5" rear setup, still too tucked

My apologies.

Thead jacking obviously seems to offend you for some reason.

Thanks for the info.

The power dome on that hood is 10X's better then the one on the Carbon 8 hoods. Some and round like OEM.

I've seen the Carbon 8 in person, can't stand the way the power dome is shaped.
