Great looking F87 M2C. For the Michelin Cup 2 tires did you stick with OEM sizing or increase width?

[@RB26DETT_]

Did you ever find out? I wanna run this setup on my M2C with cup 2 tires as well

[@hybridparts3169]

Nice wheels, tyre and alloys will make massive difference on the track👍

[@timmietz]

Can you fit 255 front and 285 rear tires on this car on three FI Rs?

[@ericchacone3876]

Yes

[@robinmyrberg92]

Supercars on London has allready put up a video of this car fully tuned etc. how can you allow that when you seem to want to go weeks on without putting the end-product on your own youtube?

[@RaceChipChiptuning]

We will release the episodes shortly, because of various other projects and the christmas holidays we are a little bit behind, sorry for that.

[@thomasprandstetter6022]

Hallo! Tolles Video 😎 Würde gern die Maße der Felgen für VA + HA wissen. und die Dimension der Reifen. Weiters wäre intressant ob ihr Sturztechnisch was ändern musstet, bzw ob Spurplatten rein mussten. bitte danke 😎

[@jackryan9045]

2K per wheel, ill stick with Volks or Advans.

[@WallabyWinters]

sadly they are not legal in germany

[@8teate]

Why not legal?

[@afailathrone]

I just bought the copy version of this for my e60 >:)

[@alexanderlennox7870]

Nice video! I’ve been told that the FIR is even slightly lighter than M4GTS’s carbon fiber aluminum compound wheels! Which size have you picked by the way?

[@kamilnowrot4959]

[@edcadiri8720]

The ultimate fkking wheel... goals / dreams / the final / the ultimate...

[@mhanism]

Awesome video, and love the sound track! Are those stock lugs or did you guys do a stud kit? Thanks!

[@ldemetriou]

So when will we see the RaceChip GTS for the M2 Competition? What kind of figures can we expect? Same as the M3/M4 Competition?

[@RaceChipChiptuning]

We will release the episode shortly.

[@a8rt]

You guys never reply my facebook message. My racechip has an issue

[@RaceChipChiptuning]

Hello Sherman, I'm sorry to hear that you didn't get a reply on our facebook channel. Please reach out to our technical customer service at [e-mail] and we'll typically reply in two days.

Why didn't you weigh the stock wheels? How much do these save?

[@RaceChipChiptuning]

We just didn't include it in the video. The stock wheels weigh 10,5 kg / 23 lbs in the front (the BBS weighted in the video is also front) and 12,2 kg / 26,8 lbs in the back. Hence, weight saving for the front wheels is 2,8 kg!

[@Reinundzufall]

Endlich mal was zu dem Thema BBS FI R. Der Gewichtsunterschied ist ja echt gewaltig - habt ihr mal Zeiten gemessen, als Vergleich? Wie hat sich das Handling verändert? Bei div. Porschefelgen fällt die Gewichtsersparnis ja ähnlich aus, in meinem Fall wären es sogar um die 12kg (Porsche RS Sypder Rad 19" mit Zentralverschluss). Dankbar über jedes Feedback!

[@RaceChipChiptuning]

Vielen Dank, also bei reinen Beschleunigungswerten von 0 - 100 oder 100 - 200 KM/H auf der Geraden, wirst du rein mit der Gewichtsersparnis nicht übermäßig viel Zeit gewinnen, wenn es überhaupt messbar ist, durch verschiedene Messtoleranzen. Allerdings wo du mit ziemlicher Sicherheit sehr viel Zeit gut machen kannst, durch Reduzierung des Gewichts und mit dem entsprechendem Reifen, ist bei Rundenzeiten. Hier macht sich die reduzierte ungefederte Masse sehr schnell bemerkbar. Leider kamen wir noch nicht dazu so einen Test mit Vorher/Nachher-Vergleich zu machen, ist auch etwas aufwendiger :)

[@speedracerxtreme]

When are you going to do a Mustang Ecoboost?

[@2toton]

I really want the racechip for my m2 lci

[@dominikgiesler4967]

0:37 wie heißt die Musik ?

[@lepszejnazwyniebylo]

Great wheels. How much did the stock 19" wheels weigh?

[@RaceChipChiptuning]

The stock wheels weigh 10,5 kg / 23 lbs in the front (the BBS weighted in the video is also front) and 12,2 kg / 26,8 lbs in the back. Hence, weight saving for the front wheels is 2,8 kg!

[@dominicruopp9364]

Nice vid, guys!

[@ladislavpolevka2201]

Do you feel any difference in acceleration?

[@RaceChipChiptuning]

You won't feel much difference in pure acceleration on a straight. But with a good wheel combination and a full suspension set up, you will feel a huge difference while cornering and that makes huge time differences on a track. This is to due the safed unsprung mass and the better grip of the tyres.

[@mhanism]

Any rubbing with the FIR and tires?

[@RaceChipChiptuning]

No, no rubbing at all. They fitted perfectly in combination with the Eibach suspension setup.

[@mhanism]

RaceChip Thank you! So the car was lowered about 1” front and 0.8”? Or was it lowered further? Appreciate it!

[@gixxerjoey]

@@RaceChipChiptuning Your car looks awesome! Keep up the good work. What tire sizes are you running?
