BMW 320d M PACK FRONT HEIGHT

[Twincam Shark]

Hey guys
i have a late 2011 / 320d M PACK
Sport pack 18s with the std Michellins

I have noticed a couple of other 320ds M pack with the 18s sit quiet low
by the wheel arch and tyre.
Mine actually has a 2 - 1/2 finger space.

Is it maybe they have Bridgestones, as i noticed my previous e90 / 325i had Bridgestones and they sat like 1 - 1/2 finger space.

Could be the tyre or the off-set or they may have a sportspack suspension or aftermarker suspension.

1.5 - 2 finger gap sounds normal OEM to me :thumbs:

okay cool
must be the tyre as my car is also the sport pack.

Can we see a pic of your car please

 

[Twincam Shark]

do you want to see a picture of the fender gap or the whole car
Its definetly a Sport pack, i am just querying the gap.

Aa pic of the car would be great.
The reason for this is that during the Olympic year,BMW UK released the Olympic model in the outgoing E90.
This came as a complete M sport model - thats bodykit and wheels.

So,the wife was in the market for one and I went out to take a look.
All they did was ,as I said the kit and the alloys,minus the suspension - It looked really poooooooop.

From what youve described,2.5 fingures seems reasonable for the M Sport suspension unless you have fingures like Shreks.:rollsmile:

The make of the tyre doesnt matter, the tyre size does.

i know, but i have noticed that the Michelins look abit bigger than the
Bridgestones.
i know the size is the same , but to the eye.
