My pit crew (wife) is currently dailying the bean and getting it ready to come over to Deutschland, she's not a fan of the coilovers. Got some Hankook RS4s put on the TDs for some endurance Nordschleife lapping, also need to get forscan and disable the tpms so it will pass inspection.

The TPMS light on the dash will fail you at Germany's TUV inspection?

I guess they really are as draconian as their reputation.

I see you've got -3.5° camber in front. Is that attainable with just the camber bolts or is there adjustment in the tops of the coilovers?
I've got 225/45/15 tires for autox(that i haven't used yet), but i just did a cold day event and had way more tire rub than i exected with 195/55/15.

That's not a bad system to have working. Especially if you're going to be doing laps of the Nordschleife or running on the Autobahn.

I would agree if it was like GM's system, and had an actual psi readout for each individual tire.
As it is fairly useless to me (if it lights up, you have to check ALL of the tires anyway), and none of my 5 sets (until I sell two sets) of wheels have the sensors in them.
But then I also do not drive at 240 KPH on the Nurburgring or 'bahn.
