It has begun!

Both the 1M and M3 had the BBS FI, can we expect the same here

I wonder what the price will be for the F10 M5 DDC kit.

According to KW, they are not planning on supporting it. I personally will be hiding the KW switch, and using the iPhone app to make the changes through the WLAN module.

Slammmed!!!! Any rubbing?

Vic55 · 07-31-2013, 09:52 PM

Looks good--- almost too low in the rear maybe or is the picture deceiving?

I like the way you operate- swiftly.

PrimeTimeJohn · 07-31-2013, 10:01 PM

Wow, nice and aggressive! How's the ride?

Bimmer6 · 07-31-2013, 10:01 PM

Pretty low bumbs will not be your friend. Good luck with that!

mainly · 07-31-2013, 10:12 PM

slammed is an understatement.

thats almost comical looking.

Grayblack · 07-31-2013, 10:43 PM

That is dumped. I'm curious about the ride as well.

Ride is just as good as stock.

for those that havent' seen, his M3 is pretty slammed too lol:

looking forward to seeing your m5 with the wheels on- bbs?

RPiM5 · 08-01-2013, 12:07 AM

Sorry, I couldn't resist. Lol!

Niko1414 · 08-01-2013, 12:34 AM

Nice KWs....Wish they would make a sleeve kit like they do on M3. Last correspondence with KW was a NO. They will not be investing in making a sleeve kit, which allows to retain Stock EDC functionality.

AlphaAlpineM6 · 08-01-2013, 12:37 AM

Congratulations - I still refuse to pay 8 grand for an exhaust system when a supercharger for the M3 is the same price.

pochesq · 08-01-2013, 01:30 AM

If you are planning on going with 21s with that drop you should consider Falkens since it is round and flat unlike the Michelin PSS. This is based on personal experience when I had Falkens and only an H&R drop -- there was too much of a gap.

wisesoul · 08-01-2013, 02:33 AM

Slammage! Badass! Lowest M5 on the forum already perhaps.

I'm considering going 20 inch wheels but not fully decided yet! Yes Falken is my tire of choice it's what I run on my M3.
