My BMW 340 B58 build Sheet: tinyurl.com/2x5z2wnb

[@michaelwise6970]

I was thinking the same thing about keeping those stock wheels on my F30 and just getting them powder coated black, that look good fosho.. and also I'm glad you did the full suspension kit most people will just lower their car with lowering springs only not knowing how much damage they're causing to their stock shocks, If you going to lower your car this is the way to do it 💯.. 340 looks good bro 👍💯

[@mevans8646]

You can run a staggered setup with xdrive you just have to make sure the rolling diameters front and back are within factory spec of about 1% difference.

[@chanstoncochran]

^^^ This. Per Apex you can run a 245/40 front and a 275/35 rear on the xdrive models

[@greglewis4205]

I had 20s on my 435d x drive, rear was 10j with 275 35 20 rubber, front 8.5j with 235 30 20 rubber, rolling radius difference front to rear was way less than 1% and caused no problems whatsoever 👍🏻

[@ThicWhips]

How about 437m: 19x9, 255,35 and 19x10, 275, 35?

[@mevans8646]

@@ThicWhips That'll be a difference of 2.3%. Stepping down to a 265/35R19 in the rear will put you at 1.2% difference which is very close to stock tolerances.

[@richwhite2302]

This is how I run my xdrive f32. I have xdelete but that's more for track days. I run xdrive for daily.. because red light launch

[@f36_garage71]

Looks so good! I'm surprised how many go for nice wheels, front splitter etc but leave the car with a massive wheel gap. Getting the stance right with a proper suspension setup is one of the best cosmetic mods you can do. I went for Eibachs on mine and very happy. Even on 20" 624s, the ride is nice

[@l4ckl_621]

Wasn't sure about the 340 at first comparing to how this channel is going. However, seeing you get excited about a build again is why I started watching this channel in the first place. Loving the content

[@Spyaallstar]

Stance is perfect. I do love the m sport wheels as well. I got mine powder coated gloss black and will use those as my snow tire set for my 428i GC. PA winters are harsh

Nice video, I’ll be really interested to see a video about cups and what you’ll do for e85. Great build coming!

[@jeffsneed8535]

Agree with Mevans my 2018 came with staggered from the factory.

[@skrrtproductions]

Gotta get rid of that monster truck ride height. Looks great man. I’m currently saving up for some nice coil overs, these H&R springs just aren’t cuttin it 😂

[@franklineno8616]

Dude,thank you for being honest about the kw v2 suspension, here in the UK most sellers are quick to sell you the v3 for a road car,great as they are like you I believe they are over kill in a large amount of applications, some just want the best but will never get near its capability on the road,the v2 are absolutely great in the cars I've had the pleasure of being in,love you video's too,looking forward to this finished article, peace love manners and respect 🙏

[@semi-chubber2388]

I went with the KW Street Comfort for my F30. Full drop . Dampening fully open for comfort. Still a bit harsh for my liking, but looks dope as fuck.

[@gio7835]

How does the ride feel with V2? Bumpy at all vs stock? Thanks and look forward to your build!

[@tunstall429]

Just in time for my break at work 👍👌

[@thanegotiator]

Couldn’t you have purchase coil overs that have complete adjustments to include camber or are camber plates by themselves a better option. I plan to to use BC Racing Coil Overs which I had on my E92 & loved them.

I have the 17’ xdrive track package. My setup is staggered from the factory. I don’t know that you need x delete to staggger. AWD so much faster

[@ParkerTheRapper]

I’ll be totally honest I wasn’t sure how on board I was with the 340 since it was the same motor as the supra but the idea of going through things like the X delete as well as some sedan specific content is something I’m really hyped for can’t wait to see what’s coming!!! 🙌

Why not just go full E85, all you need is to upgrade the fuel pump and stage 2, FBOs and you have high 500s

[@ThicWhips]

Because I don’t have full e85 locally. It’s much more practical to run 93octane and meth 24/7. Very easy to manage and I don’t have to drive 20 min everytime I want e85.

[@somewhereoverit711]

LA's potholes, uneven roads, speed bumps is the main problem for people with lowered cars because it can rip our suspension and bumpers to shreds.
