How rough are we talking here? I was thinking of getting the Tein SS but don't want the ride to be "rough"... From what i've read the CS v2 rides too much like stock. How does it feel on the softest setting?

Im running pirellis but not too sure what brand. tire sizes are 245/30/r20 in the rear and 245/35/r20 in the fronts. No fender modifications done nothing cut...and in the ride is between stock BMW and stock GS. The roughness is between the two.

Does the traction control come on any more easier since there is a little difference in size of tires. It's is only .96" taller and 3" circumference difference. No sure if that would affect it any or not. I read somewhere the tire size (height) should be no bigger than 3%. Yours is probably around 3.6%.
Just wondering, because I may buy some wheels in the future and not sure to staggar them or not.

Is that right?....245/30/20 on a 20x10 rear?

yes on the rear its a bit stretched. It does look PS'd because i had to lower the resolution to fit the pic onto clublexus. I resized it because the original pic was like 1200x 1040 or something like that and it was 3.2 megs. traction control does not come on at all. Oh and correction on tire size the rears are the same but the fronts are 235/35/r20's instead of 245. They are stretched...
