So why you're not keeping the x force exhaust?

Actually your new fronts have an OD .3" and the rears have an OD .4" less than the stock tires.

Shows what I know about tires, I'm still learning tire stuff. Plus, I was running 265/35 rears because my stock rear tire cracked and just needed some cheap tires to hold me over until these arrived. For $40 I went with those crappy 265/35 tires that tucked way up into my wheel well, so it's hard to compare to the stock size since I didn't swap directly to the PSS.

I'm loving these specs still, the grip is great and the ride is super smooth.

Side note, I LOVE your RCF 5 spoke wheels on the ISF. If I could've found a set of those I would've done it! They look amazing on the ISF.

20mm spacers all around? Crazy how sunk in the rear wheels are from the factory. I throw my swifts on this weekend when I paint the calipers, a set of spacers will definitely be needed to get the stock wheels to flush up.

Also what brand? There's a ton of reputable companies that offer spacers in the BMW world, not sure who makes quality spacers for our bolt pattern.

I'd go H&R DRS. Plenty of Z guys track with them with no complaints including my Z.
