- 10mm spacers front and rear - 25mm (~1") drop in front and 5mm in rear - 14 clicks from stiff since car will be used for street use only with maybe an occasional track day - no camber plates, using stock mounts - may need revised fender liners but currently not available until January Any issues with this setup? Am I going too low up front, especially compared to rear? The car has so much forward rake that I want to get rid of. |

If the selling vendor, especially a none sponsoring one, can't provide any after sale setup help or support, you should go else where and support those who can. Last edited by HP Autosport; 12-15-2021 at 09:56 PM.. |

If you want to have front and rear wheel arches equally full with tire, i.e. equal fender gap, then you should set ohlins as recommended and run taller tire in front than in rear… which is what BMW has done with all M cars prior to 1M/e9x M3 (and the e92 M3 GTS). |

My drop is about 15mm front and 5mm rear, which is the recommended setup. When running square wheel/tire setup, the wheel gap is equal all around. The staggered setup still has a much tighter gap at the rear but obviously not as much.
I have -2.8 degrees camber up front, -2.2 rear. I use a 10mm spacer on the front only to correct the tuck from the camber. Make sure your installer replaces the aluminum stretch bolt on the hub spindle. It will not hold torque if reinstalled.

Bad news bears… certainly wouldn’t be necessary, especially since all adjustments are made from underside. Maybe someone else can think of why they might do this

The front strut has an inverted damper. The damping adjustment is access from the bottom of the strut. Just turn your wheel to full lock and reach around the tire to access. There is no need to drill anything.
Assuming they failed to read the instructions for their first install on the Ohlins R&T. |

It's more than a year since nobody is posting here so... here we go again!
I noticed there is a new revision of the Ohlins manual for the 1M kit: https://ohlins.com/storage/C6E7F11CB...MZMN01S1_0.pdf. (Issued 2023-01-23) Some questions if somebody knows the answer(s)
I also noticed the only available model/KIT now is BMZMN01S1 ... interesting. Thanks in advance for any protip you could provide! |
