OFFTOPIC. Well... I hope you are right :drinking:. I personally doubt it, but a trip to Nurburgring will prove one of us wrong (I will buy the wider fenders to get rid of this issue). The immense differences in elevation and 90+ mph will make the car behave differently than on a normal road even if the car is loaded.

Carrera2RS:
Oh another thought, I am not sure if Simpson Motorsport 'pulled' the arches a little, I did mention that loosening fender mounts and a little adjusting then re tightening had also been mentioned.

The inner lip is rolled back and the inner arch moved upwards when they did this, not just bolt removed. I take your point, there is a real 'dipper' on one of my regular trips, when I had my E92 M3 I would hit the front spoiler on some occasions. This was a slow down point for me as it can throw the car around, even this was okay at speed and getting thrown around

I guess the answer might be very different if you get corner loading and a real awkward dip/bump. I'd like to try and see, but for a road car it has not been an issue so far (1,000 miles or so)

gobbleplease:
Thanking you mate ! Sounds like i might need to get my arches modded or new wings with a bit of clearance !
