35k miles. Stock, unmodified.... Basically it's as BMW shipped it except fluids, filters & tires.
Although, it may be worth me confirming the tires are OE sizes too (they are).

Does anyone have the specification? Usually, BMWs have a square ride height with the sum of the difference between the measurements to be less than 10mm.

Also, I assume that this is to be measured with a full tank, weight in the seats and trunk, etc.

I measured mine yesterday (M Coupe with original suspension and 86k) in preparation for suspension replacement and conversion to coilovers. It was ~14.5 in the front and 15 in the rear (measurement from rim to fender -9" to be in the middle of the hub).

Thanks!

These are European cars, as such

Front is 607mm
Rear is 595mm

TIS calls for a 10mm tolerance

Measure from the lower rim lip to the fender sheet metal
