Got my Springs and Exhaust on.
Hey Everyone. still havent managed to get a good sound check for my Borla. For some reason my camera never picked the sound up well today when i tried so i will try again. I am possibly claiming the shiniest M6 on here haha.
Enjoy.. thoughts please.

H&R Springs.
Borla cat back.
EXE Konkorse wheels 20x9, 20x10.5 with 8mm spacers.

thanks everyone for your views, good and bad haha.
to be honest i picked the wheels for a few reasons.
Firstly i know we have critics on here who love there HREs and dont believe in putting on cheaper one peice wheels.
But i didnt choose these based on cost. i have a 2007 Escalade with 26s on it so i have no problem spending the money on the things i like.
I saw them online and loved them. i had a 2007 GT3 before this, white with black Techart wheels and my escalades is same, white with black so i wanted away from the colors.
Also my top is grey so i wanted a rim that fitted the color match. If i had the black top and black interior i probably would've went black.
I love my K&N. id say every 3rd time i start the car i get the CEL for high emissions. other than that sounds great and performs well.

I believe there only is one Spring H&R offer for the M6. the drop is perfect. my only problem is i ordered the Hamann front lip which i get this weekend before dropping it. Now im worried thats gonna be too low.

the ride is as expected i guess. i have lowered alot of cars on both Eibach and H&R. i prefered the equal drop of the H&R and also Eibach designed there spring for the Coupe i believe.
