Mineral Grey F36 GC ~sharing a quick shot~

Titan 3 · 04-25-2015, 09:02 AM

Morning, gentlemen,

I took this photo leaving work last night, and thought it was good enough to share. It was pouring outside, so I figured I should record its final moments of being clean.

Anyways, hope ya dig! The car is a 428ix, lowered on H&R Sports. Feedback always welcomed!

MassBimmer · 04-25-2015, 09:24 AM

Very nice, wheels look great

Dante · 04-25-2015, 09:50 AM

Sweet! What wheels are those?

GORGEOUS...... Just saved the pic as my wall paper. I've been wondering what these would look like on my car ever since I saw them on somebody's F32. Now I know

Yeah, I'm really pleased with the color too. I was between this and a 335i in Estoril Blue. No regrets.

...and thanks! I'm really pleased with the wheels. Fitment is perfect, and I'm digging' the concavity.

Thanks! I'm really happy with how it's coming together. Dying for the exhaust to get here. The tips of a 428 are soooo small on that wide rear end. grrr

Those wheels look great with the color of your car

Zen-man · 04-27-2015, 03:05 PM

More pictures! That's a perfect stance

ryanSTL · 04-27-2015, 08:28 PM

wheels look really good, but more importantly ... how is the ride with the H&R sports? can you give driving impressions around town, highway, curves at speed, rough roads, etc?

car looks great, nice choices

goon · 04-28-2015, 06:18 PM

Dang, love the look man

Those 20s with the drop set the 4 off very nicely

The Xdrive stock suspension was a bit bouncy. From what I've read that seems to be s common theme with them. Adding the H&Rs stiffened that up a bit. It's well connected to the road, and handling has improved at speed. The soft OEM struts seem to come in handy over rough spots on the road. It's just not as jarring as all of my past cars. For a daily driver, I'm really happy. Just wish it had less wheel gap.

I'm obsessed with this car!
