If you are doing the measurment yourself, it is likely the rear fender of the f80 that is 1mm lower, not actually suspension height. Like others said, 1mm is essentially the size of a few strands of hair. |

You might be right. I should have been more clear...was referring to the m4 specific springs dropping the back more so than the 435/335 springs drop the back. Since both drop the front the same, the m4 has a greater rear drop bias compared to the 435/335 springs.

I had the H&R Sport's installed yesterday at EAS and the rake/drop on my M4 is absolutely FLUSH. Looks so perfect, it's ridiculous. EAS is posting pics today as far as I know...YMB/SS with Black 19's, looks amazing. Wayyyyy better than the M4 springs IMO

From what I understand the white M4 was dropped with H&R Sport Springs for the F8X.
The YMB M4 was dropped with H&R Sport Springs for the F32 435 which is why its not as low. according to this thread at least: http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...0&postcount=50

Spacers and lighting can make a difference. This is the same car with more agressive spacers and less shadow on the wheels. Taking some of the neg camber out of the rear after lowering helps also. I think the M4 springs with proper alignment and wheel offset looks very good. The less aggressive 435 springs also look good IMO. |

It's a bit aggressive, I would recommend sticking with the 15/12mm to be on the safe side.
