will be my first track season with “real aero” also…Suspension all back in after servicing. Brought it down to the ground and performed the coolant bleed. Having never owned a BMW before, service mode to bleed the coolant is kinda wild.
I can't wait to get this thing back on track with all the aero!
Gold on yellow is... different. hahahWheels, tires, brake pads, brake fluid done. Rock guards on. TPMS set up. I realized my magnets won't work on this car, so had to put actual stickers for the numbers.
Almost ready to get whooped at Bimmer Challenge. ?
18s sure give this car a whole different look.
I tend to do things differently.
I'm currently thinking of how to heat cycle the tires. I'm thinking some violent stop/go while bedding in the pads followed by a spirited drive through a local windy road. I have no way to do it on a machine.
I have never heat cycled them, but yea if you want day 2 grip on day 1, drive the hell out of them beforeI tend to do things differently.
My next track day will be a timed event, so the tires have to be on for that day.I have never heat cycled them, but yea if you want day 2 grip on day 1, drive the hell out of them before
If you don’t mind me asking, where were you able to get them from ? Love the 23 wheels but can’t ever find any people selling them
Installed 2023 OEM wheels on my 2022 Tungsten Supra 3.0 this morning.
Thanks! Actually it's a part of a hall and the old office of the company i founded with my buddy some time ago. But we use it as our garage for project cars & mountain bikes now.
I bought them off xkyo23 who was selling them here.
Just driving around at speeds over 50 mph should be fine. I didn’t lookup what treadwear your running, but with 100tw mine heat cycle really quick. I did drive all the way from Ft. Myers to Miami, lol. So that was plenty. The grip… Wow!!!!I tend to do things differently.
"200"tw.
