I know this is subjective, but how was ride quality on the B14s? Did anyone ever complain about the car not being comfortable? I'm considering them for my F30.

honestly it was fine if the roads were pristine, any crappy road or anything short of perfect and it was dog shit, lol. I would spend more and get KW or B16's with dampening control, if you only track the car its fine.

My wife never really complained but going to my new to me 335 rwd the ride is night and day!

Wow, she's a looker

Also, what brakes are those? Calipers look like an M performance part because of the color but the rotors look like an M part since they're drilled and not dimpled. I'm guessing you retrofitted F8x brakes and had the calipers painted?

Thank you! It's a OEM M Performance Brake system that is made for the F30,F32 and F36 which come is 3 different colors - Red, Orange and in Phoenix yellow. The rotors are dimpled NOT drilled.

Here is a close up

Ah okay. Your rotors look like they're drilled all the way through in that first photo, à la M2/3/4. From what I can tell the M performance rotors for the F3X's are dimpled and slotted which is why I was confused on which set up you had. Maybe it's just the light and angle that threw me off.

might be putting the savini wheels you helped me spec on our e90, well see!
