Got my KW's installed finally, they make driving such a pleasure. More than the M5 already is.

BTW running 255/35/20 F and 295/30/20 R
I'm going to have the rear fenders pulled so I can fit 305s if I please





completely unedited one


Enjoy, will post when it's at its lowest

Damn. That's one bad ass M5. Love what you've done to the car. You should get some yellow AE if they make them to go along with you emblem and brake calipers. I've seen them on Advan's (Gary) E90 M3.

Thanks DK, I can't find them for pre lci cars so I might just have a yellow LED soldered in place to get that, or do the yellow headlight film so it looks like an ALMS car

Looks good John. I have the front's at 24 threads showing and the rear I have 7 threads showing and it's perfect

Have you played with the compression/rebound settings? I think I dialed mine!

Nice! I haven't actually, I know the rears are about 2 clicks harder than what KW recommends.

I Love the ride
