EAS Pics of my F13 M6: HRE Wheels- H&R- Meisterschaft Subject Matter

Mods please keep here for a little bit... please as some members have asked about my M6 but dont tend to travel to the quiet F13 side. Gratitude.

So here is my M6- the springs were just released and they really drop the car right IMHO. Its not too slammed but its not short in the rear either. The wheels are of course from HRE and they are my 15th set. Im loyal to a great manufacturer but also a great group of individuals there who always put out amazing wheels with tremendous quality and bold looks.

Big ups to Serge, Nick,and Paris at Benzworks in Huntington Beach who always work on my Benzes but have the wrench skills to drop Bimmers and install exhausts too.

And EAS the awesome local Bimmer tuning and mod facility in Orange County which Im very grateful to have close to my house. Tom, Steve, Sam, and Anthony are excellent modding partners to my cause and Anthony sure can take great pics with little to zero planning.

20x9.5 and 20x11 HRE P47SC's in Satin Black on stock PSS rubber (255x35 and 295x30)
H&R F13 M6 specific springs 1 inch drop at each corner
Don Nguyen carbon fiber wrap rear spoiler
Dealer painted front and rear reflectors and wrapped my side gills and front grill (yes they had someone do it) since the front grill wasnt out in black yet.
Meisterschaft back exhaust (LXR mid pipe and rear cans)
IND rear emblem in black

The drop and the rims really make the F13 M6 into a proper sports car! Great look. Have you had a chance to see if the handling has changed with the drop?

No matter how good of a product the Meisterschaft may now be, I will never support a company who knowingly sold fake branded Eisenmann exhausts to hundreds of BMW owners.

Drove by Audi of West Covina today to look at a TT-RS and I think I may have saw your M5 parked out in front? Looking good!! Your M6 is looking spectacular! The wheels suit the car too well

Thanks to all for the comps and comments.... Im really enjoying this car and it feels faster than the M5 with only its 150 or so lb difference in weight.

So far so good, I have yet to take on the same exact high speed routes that I run my M5 so Ill be able to give you better perspective this up coming week. I did get it up to some nice speeds (154mph) on a regular traveled road and the car felt really good and planted. I was able to push into some higher speed curves with no worries. I have a higher personal threshold for comfort vs handling and chassis response so others might find it a bit less compliant.

Ahh so that was you! You might need to wipe some drool off your car
Was checking out the TT-RS for my gf, I thought the color was a little flashy, but I loved it. I saw the white V10 R8 out back, you lucky sap.. Keep us posted on that

COME ON.....!!!!!!!! Tell us the truth, are you really Reggie Jackson and have 20 more collectible cars in your stable? You're lucky I don't still live in SoCal or I'd be stalking you to look at just the cars you admit to on this forum!

Not liking the wheels like I thought I would... The design looks a little dated. Don't get me wrong, looks good, but lots of civics running around with similar... Remind me of Volk's.

Too much black IMHO. Love contrast, but it's a little much.
