Checked the Tyre pressures as the ride was ridiculously firm. They were around 5 psi down on each tyre 
Pumped them up to 33 psi front, 36 psi rear and it's much more compliant for my work commute now
I also took some photos of the ride height difference at the rear, between n/s and o/s, since there was a thread discussing this. I knew I wasn't going crazy. My car has always sat slightly higher on the n/s rear, so I always park that side facing away from me :lol:

Yep, mine was exactly the same after fitting a B12 kit. I lost count how many times I checked and repositioned the rear springs in an attempt to rectify the height difference at the rear
I finally replaced one of the standard spring pads with a thicker one from BMW and the car now sits perfectly

Nice wheels Matt.

Cheers, well pleased with them. Make a huge difference over the old ones.

Z4 E89 in at Audiofile for a system 3 plus audio upgrade, can’t wait to pick it up tomorrow! I’ll post some picks and give an update after my drive home. I listened to their demo systems and they sound incredible. If anyone is thinking about it I would say that the difference between the system 3 and the system 3 plus is pretty significant.

Apologies certainly didn’t mean to give the impression of advertising.
