Cool F01 Bay Area callout

Geez, took me like over a year to post up, but its time to reach out to the community to see if there are any like minded individuals out here.

I got an F01 750i, lowered on some SS H&R (a real pain in the ass, took me 2 days due to the lack of access of the rear), muffler chops, and EDC delete.

Anybody else out here in the Bay with f01's? I seen a couple on the road. Lets do a meet up and smash canyons.

Whats up man, I was just looking around for tires size research on 22s and saw your post.

Honestly, OEM suspension, even with the Sport+ activated.. its like a boat. (my test is the 880 where they have those multiple dips)...

After installing springs, its so much more responsive.. and eliminates the "boaty" feeling. When I put it in Sport+ mode... it really hangs well... even when I took it to the track..

Heres how it did on the track.. I was pretty impressed with it... for being a land-yacht n all lol



Im in the Bay area.. yout too?
