..::PSI::.. BMW F30 335i M-Sport Before and After coil-overs
Hey everyone,
We just wanted to post our recent experience with coil-overs on the F30 335i. We worked with BC Racing NA to develop the F30 kit, so here it is in action. Again, this is before and after. The after photos are set to MAX LOW, full drop. It will not get any lower than that and we don't encourage driving on the coil-overs this low. We just did it to take measurements and photos to show how low it will go. The car was raised to a nice drivable height that eliminated most of the "wheel gap".  Before:  BMW F30 335i before BC Racing Coil-overs by Precision Sport Industries, on Flickr  BMW F30 335i before BC Racing Coil-overs by Precision Sport Industries, on Flickr  BMW F30 335i before BC Racing Coil-overs by Precision Sport Industries, on Flickr  BMW F30 335i before BC Racing Coil-overs by Precision Sport Industries, on Flickr After:  IMG_7BMW F30 335i after BC Racing Coil-overs by Precision Sport Industries, on Flickr  BMW F30 335i after BC Racing Coil-overs by Precision Sport Industries, on Flickr  BMW F30 335i after BC Racing Coil-overs by Precision Sport Industries, on Flickr  BMW F30 335i after BC Racing Coil-overs by Precision Sport Industries, on Flickr  BMW F30 335i after BC Racing Coil-overs by Precision Sport Industries, on Flickr If you're interested in a kit for your F30, don't hesitate to ask us! PM or call us for more info! EDIT: Here is a photo of its daily driving height. Again, "To each, his own".

What kind of improvements did you see when it comes to laptime, skidpad, slalom, or other measurable test? Any shift in handling balance? What kind of spring rates? Or am I just missing the point?

For my taste, dumped too low. If your going to dump it like that, be sure to add curb feelers, a little chain steering wheel (so it'll give that perceived look that you can drive with cuffs on), and switch out the wheels for some Dayton wires. As for the driver, be sure to let your trousers hang off your a$$ and get some nice jail house tats so you can front and look the part dawg.
