BMW E92 335i - progress thread

[_add1ct]

Congrats on the feature man! Ive seen your car all over instagram futuras are my dream wheel and combined with the e92 they look sweet. I had a set that I was planning on running on my 135i but never got around to it and now the cars and wheels are gone:/

As soon as I got the Futuras on the car, Rick from Air Society contacted me and wanted to do a feature. I was stoked about this and here is the outcome. Be sure to check it out!

Thank you!

I've noticed the e-Level sensors are kind of bitchy about having a really clean connection to the harness. My solution has been to zip-tie the harness connector to the sensor to basically provide constant pressure inwards. Correlation ≠ causation, but I haven't had any connection problems since doing so.

The car looks simply perfect, by the way!

Thank you for the info! If I have any more trouble with the connections I'll do the same.

And thanks!

The other one lost contact with the ECU. I swapped the right to left sensors and cleaned the connections, and after this i havent had any more problems.

I recently have had some issues with the elevel sensors. One sensor arm was cracked (I fucked this up earlier), and this made the sensor adjust the height up and down... The other one lost contact with the ECU. I swapped the right to left sensors and cleaned the connections, and after this i havent had any more problems. Happy days!

Here is the driving height after the new calibration and adjustments. Just need to get the toe in aligned.

wow, once you shave the fenders and space it. GOLDEN

Thanks! I want the lips to be flush with the fenders, so no spacers for me.

fitment looks perfect

Thank you!

wow perfect execution, quite the stance wizard.

Thank you sir, appreciate it!

In my opinion, you have achieved perfect fitment. I'm personally not a huge fan of tuck or poke (although I can appreciate both in certain circumstances), and I think a car looks best when the fenders are sitting directly on top of the lip of the wheel. I also have a soft spot for E92's, and yours is probably my favorite example to date. Extremely well executed man, it turned out amazing. I would not mind having that as a DD

Thanks a lot! I too prefer this over tuck or poke, but some cars look really good with tuck or poke. I think it depends on the chassie.

I have read your entire thread on air society and I love the work you put down on your 02.
