(F12 / F13 / F06) Official MODIFIED 6-Series Convertible / Coupe / Gran Coupe Thread

[Bankerbry]

New here and wanted to share my 14 650i X drive. 433 style wheels, black wrapped grill, side markers and door handles.
Would really like some opinions on the wheels. I'm struggling a bit and wondering if I'm just being picky. I love the look of the wheels and when viewed from the side, but the offset I larger and I don't like that the rear wheels stick out a bit from the fender. Please share your thoughts.
Thank you

Sorry, lets try this again.

Rear offset seems a bit aggressive (low offset). You should take a pic from the rear of the car to really show how far they stick out. What are the sizes and offsets of your fronts and rears?

Question for you all since this is seems like a good place. I found a 2014 640i xDrive for sale and it seems like a good deal. 30k miles for 39k from CarMax. Pretty much loaded. My question is that I am also looking at getting an m240i (I got that need for SPEED) so I was curios as to what you guys thought and also, how many performance mods are there for the 640i? I know that it is a bit heavier than the 2 series but I want to have fun and have it be pretty quick as well! Thanks, if this is not the right place, let me know! OH and how are the backseats for the coupe?? I am 5 foot 6 but I may carry my parents several times for long distances (they are no more than 5 foot 4).

Instead of buying both I'd just buy the M6

I am 5'9" and my 5'4" girlfriend can sit behind me ok. Not good enough to drive 300 miles but more than good enough for a 30 minute drive. I think at your height and your parents height you should be ok.

Are the brake calipers painted or powered coated?

No one that can share ET for 9Jx20 front and 10.5Jx20 rear?

Or some suggestions for a flush fit, thank you.

Not sure if this is the right thread to be asking this question but I will help. Go the below link and if you like how my car is sitting (please note that it is lowered on Eibach springs, about 1", and has no spacers), then go with the below set up. I am personally really happy with how aggressive my stance is.

Front: VS Forged VS08 BRUSHED TITANIUM 5X120 20X9 30MM CB 72.56 w/ 255/30 Bridgestone Pole Position S04 Tires

Rear: VS Forged VS08 BRUSHED TITANIUM 5X120 20X10.5 38MM CB 72.56 w/ 295/30 Bridgestone Pole Position S04 Tires

Dang those are some big wheels! How's the ride quality I'm assuming it's pretty harsh compared to 19 or 20. Do the front wheels brush up against the liner?

Hi community,

2 months ago, I was having dinner with family in a nice restaurant. We arrived at around 8pm and left around midnight.
When we went out, surprise, our car was gone. We were wondering around to see if we did leave the car further down the road.

30 minutes later, we called Police and where told to go to the station to report a potential theft.

We were in Lisbon on holidays with our car.
We took a flight back home and informed our insurance.
They sent an insurance claim officer who came along with plenty of questions.

He asked for both keys (which we have), registration documents etc.

3 weeks later, they come back to me, saying claim is rejected as they did a reading of both keys and saw that on one key, car was driven 2 hours after we were in the restaurant and was driven for 10 miles.

They basically say, that either me has driven the car or I have given keys to someone else.

It would be very un-normal that a thief steals your keys, drives away and brings keys back.

I do not know, if someone took out the key out of my jacket when we were having lunch.What I know is, when we left the restaurant, car was gone but I was in possession of my key.

I searched a bit the internet and saw that other people had same problem with AXA insurance. They claim that they did the car key reading and that car was still being used minutes or hours after the car was supposed to be parked.

I requested my keys back and now some kind of panicking.
They want their solicitor, my solicitor, a bailiff present to the reading of the keys.

They did sent me a read out of the keys done at a BMW garage and there I can see, that the car was moved around 2 hours being in the restaurant and driven around 10 miles.

Why was there no official (bailiff) present to pick up the keys or during the reading?
The insurance guy took the keys and 7 days later, the reading was done.

Now they want everything done in presence of solicitors and bailiff.

Could there be any possibility that they have altered data on my key fob?

I was in touch with a Coder and he told me, that with the right software, that would not be a problem.

Some advice would be very much appreciated.
Going to court will cost a fortune.

Just for the records:
Car is not leased, there is no finance, there are no financial problems.
I could if I wanted, have sold the car 10 times so no need to get into something dodgy like stealing my own car.


Thanks a lot.
