I would never have considered. I suppose the you cannot have the spacers in isolation
without lowering the ride height?
Our friend Dragon is doing the same... I think you can, but obviously not as wide. I think you have to on these cars... the wheels feel really tucked in the guards IMO

Would have already been done but they struggled to get hold of the locking wheel nuts which are due to arrive tomorrow.
You're welcome mate, look forward to seeing it!

I think the spacers will make a big difference

That's a long story. To make it short, I've got the last 3 new spec'ed cars and my wife's mad at me. She also upset I've sold all her convertibles and amgs in the past when she liked them. Then I took her to see the c63s when it was on display at the Atlanta car show and she said it looked like a bad pair of NBA shoes. So I had to hold off on my order (I need to update my signature) and I, I mean us, maybe getting a convertible instead.
Altough it's better than the M4 I almost had to buy the other day. (She gets trips to the BMW performance center a lot and it's in our back yard so everytime she comes back from there I have to fight of the BMW urge to buy.)
So now since she's seen the new convertible coming out, and she's in a boring car now (so she says) I have to wait.
Till then, I keep leaving coupe photos around the house and in her email box.

I was getting an M4 until I sat in and test drove the C63S! It was such an easy choice. And mind you I have had m and non m 3 series in the garage fir the last 20yrs.

Looks great, the front profile of the C63(s) looks so much more aggressive than our C43 :-)

Extra stress, from the spacers??
Could dealers void warranties due to spacers only???
