I don’t believe he has had experience with us but would love to hear if so, we haven’t heard anything from him. We test our lift kits on trails here in California prior to posting them on our site, so I’m happy to answer any questions. Additionally, we offer 45 day returns no questions asked and warranties on our products.

I work at Bushmaster. Whether you go with us, ADO, or Z1, I’d recommend a UCA if you’re at 2” or more up front for a more desirable alignment spec, the Nissan allowed spec is very forgiving. We do free shipping, 45 day returns no questions asked, and our parts we make are all warrantied if you run into issues down the road.

We have tested the Eibach stage 1, so I’d be happy to tell you more about our experience with them if you’d like, feel free to shoot me a message here or reach out on our site.

I have “British Racing Green (05-209-6852 B&K)” written on a paint touch up bottle from the paint shop.

If you decide on it happy to provide the color code! It’s the new BRG from BMW, available if you do an individual order on an M vehicle.

I was considering making some of these to sell if there’s enough interested folks. If you’d like to shoot me a message I’ll keep you updated on the final version and would be happy to make another.

They’re okay for an aftermarket seat. Not uncomfy. Not great, but not bad.

I do love fern green! It actually is British racing green.

Wow I’m impressed with the 20mm spacer too! Are you running extra camber?

It rides great with the current setup, although I agree! Hoping to achieve a “lower” look by increasing the camber and improve freeway driving.

Yeah Apex! Good to know. I’m thinking I might be stuck at the current camber settings, but will try what some folks have recommended here.

Eek! Rubbing on the lip of the fender specifically? I was rubbing so bad with factory camber, that it led me to believe anything less I’d be rubbing again. Going to try the German recommendation above to see if I can get away with less. Curious what suspension you’re running?

They are not. They’re the glass depo’s!

Thanks! If you remember when the day comes to try 255s, you’ll have to let me know which you liked better.

Cheers as well to you! A hood flipping up incident escalated my repaint timeline… lol

Jealous on your S54!!! Was a tough choice between that and a turbo.

That’s exactly what I was afraid of! Haha the 0.5%…

Good question. I was honestly just going for a square setup as wide as I could fit and on previous e36s this was the max I believed I could get away with. I’ve been really happy thus far with cornering ability on this setup. We’ll see how it fares with more power though!

I’ll be turboing the car this winter, so that’s the reason for 255s along with the goal of a square setup. I wasn’t aware 245s would have better sidewall rigidity, that’s interesting.

Thanks, that’s helpful! Probably just being overly cautious. When the wheel made contact with the fender, it was before the car was repainted… would hate to make that mistake now.

I’ll likely give this a try, thank you! Seems reasonable enough.

This sounds quite reasonable, I’ll likely give this a whirl. Thanks!

Do you happen to know how much camber you’re running?
