I think its the optics here... the rear fender of the M5 sits lower than the front (stock) so to avoid the rake look and keep the drop even; the drop looks like it does.
Looks horrible, I would go crazy if my car looked like that.

Dude, the car looks so good clean I didn't even notice the low rear. Easily solved by raising the rear.

Curious to get your feedback. Are you going with aftermarket wheels?

Can you share what "settings" you used to get this look? It sounds like at first both front and rear were at 100% of their range, but I'm guessing you dialed it away from 100% on the rear? Looking at the HAS kit as a possible option...

KW HAS seems to be the best option at the moment IMO; car looks great but I would raise the rear a bit.

Agreed. Too low. Especially in the rear. But good to know the HAS kit can drop this low.

I thought that could be a possibility! Sweet car btw.

I have KW HAS sitting in garage waiting on wheels.

Any feedback on ride quality / rebound greatly appreciated.
