No need to apologize and my bad didn’t even look at the screen name. You have a m8. I have been working with HR and Kw to get a kit to market faster. The 850 has kit won’t work.

The spring perches are different sizes from what I was told. The M850i HR springs would fit and I am so close on just trying them. Expensive experiment as the install is not easy and cost around 600 by itself.

The springs will work but concerned that the drop is too aggresive. 1.2/1.2

I don’t see that wheel gap in the back will allow a 1.2.

I’m in sunny cali so seasons don’t really matter. Urge to lower will be based on when my aftermarket wheels come in

But the m5 guys have the similar setup and stance stock and the m550 springs seem to work fine. Only reason I am considering the 850 springs

The wheels will come into play in spring so I have some time. Love to see what others are doing as I am not sure what wheels look best on the car.
