As the title says...
Are the even out yet for the R56?

 

A few vendors here were heavily promoting them in July saying they would be out by August then radio silence. I'm guessing their arrival has been delayed.

 

I have a set on my r56. Contact Brian at Wyvern Mini. I purcahsed my set from him and he was very helpful during the installation process (I'll tell you right now, the printed instruction that come with them are useless!). Note: Make sure you loosen that cable bracket on the rear units before you install or adjust ride height.

 

Interesting, I took a look in your gallery. I noticed you didn't have to cut your strut tower opening at all. I wonder if the opening is larger on the R56.

By the way, your car looks nice.

 

how has your ride and handling changed? what did you have before?

 

dajiggalo, my BC's are sitting in the box waiting to install next weekend. Did you cut holes to install the rear extenders on your R56? If so, did you go with a 2" hole or something smaller? I did some measurements during a sway bar install last weekend and it looked like the area above the top of the strut was tall enough that only the cable would actually extend through the hole. If so, it looks like a 1.5" hole would be enough no matter what angle the coilover is sitting at. Any insight on this?

 

dajiggalo, one more question... since you didn't cut the top of the front strut towers, are you able to fully adjust the camber using a ball-end hex wrench?

 

I currently have it set 16 clicks from the hardest setting. You will certainly feel more road imperfections, BUT it does feel a bit more composed when you hit bumps...

 

Honestly, I haven't cut into the rear.... yet. As for the front, it is possible to adjust the camber without cutting the strut towers, BUT it would be a helluva lot easier if you were to trim away some of the metal....
