Thanks. It's actually stock suspension still. I think the 20" wheels really help to fill the wheel well gap. It's really making the choice of lowering difficult.
And yeah, it's a PSM style spoiler.

Ahh 20's really are a perfect fit on the F36. In fact I think I'll forgo coilovers and just get 20's instead.

I have the PSM spoiler as well. I love how it adds dimension to the F36's ass, making it look significantly more sedan and less hatchback.

Does anyone know if the M Performance Sideskirt decal is plug and play on a GC with the M Sport package? These are the sideskirts of the car I'm picking up for the wife, and just can't figure out if the skirt decals fit right on?

Can you (or ANY X-drive owner) speak to aftermarket wheel setups, and how they may/may not affect the X-drive?

People are saying to go with a square setup but this doesn't make sense to me unless having staggered will literally mess with the x-drive system.

Any feedback on this?

Are you sure you posted the right image/link?

In general, the M-Perf side skirt decals from ebay fit perfectly. I put one on my F36.

What's wrong with the image/link? Are you saying it is obvious that the decals will fit on those skirts?

There seems to be a "ridge" that goes along the middle of the skirt, and when I see photos of the decal I do not notice them covering up any such ridge....which is why I am a bit confused as to whether they are meant for those sideskirts or completely different ones.

Ah so the OEM setup for the stock wheels (are you talking about stock 18s?) is staggered?

So there should be no problem going with a larger staggered setup.

Orginal setup on mine:
M sport 442

255 35 19

225 40 19

Eagle F1 (Runcrap)

But!
It's importent to have the same diameter back/front.
"Spesial" tires that has accuracy size.
+/- % something....

Yes I understand that the smaller width tire must also be slightly taller to make up for the difference.

So you are running a staggered setup! What is the reason for those who wish to run square setups? Is it just for snow purposes?

I am looking to create a summer setup so I just wanted to confirm that I can go staggered with an even wider wheel/tire combo.
