Hi guys! New member here.... Wow, really tons of beautiful BMWs on here! I just bought a 2014 F31 328d xDrive Sports wagon, haven't picked it up but I've been way too excited and going through all the photos on here of all the nice mods and such.

Would love to get some input and contacts as to what and where I can have some mods done. I am in the North Seattle, Washington area.

New to the F31 gang - but not to BMW

Hi All,

Thanks to MSCD for suggesting a look at this thread. Here's my new (to me) 2017 F31. It was a demo car. I looked a long time to find one with both M Sport Package and Track Handling Package. This car has a bunch of other options. But those were the most important to me. I also just had installed the Dinan Shockware software upgrade to the adjustable suspension. Very nice!

Surprised 255 would not work on front
It does. I'm running 255/40 on the front with the same wheels. He likely chose the smaller 245 so he could fit a wider rear tire with a nearly equal diameter. A 285/35 would be tough to fit in rear on 513m. I am running 255/40 square without issues or rubbing on H&R springs.

On what car?

I'm running 255/35 in the front as stated (which is why I stated I was surprised that size would not work). I would not imagine 255/40 working, as it's almost a half inch wider and 1.1" more in diameter.

Who knew.

EDIT: Ugh, I thought we were discussing 19" wheels.....not 18" wheels.

Just ignore my comments in this thread.

KW V3, Ground Control camber plates and square OG TE37 18x9.5 et28 added recently.

Fitment is almost dialed in. The Toyo T1S are a tad too beefy to fit how I want, so I'm having Michelin PSS installed Tuesday. I hope that does the trick

Which dealer is that? I'm going to try to make the DelVal CCA picnic next week. I'll have to go early though, around 10/ 11 am.
