Adham: Yeah I think you have a point there buddy. Given the small price difference between shock/spring combo and coilover here I think it makes more sense to get coilovers now. The runflats may indeed have something to do with it like you said, and I'll definitely try to put my old tyre/wheel back on when I have a chance in the future.

montreal bimmer: For sure I'll post some pics here once the car is lowered.
If your thinking about doing a spring/shock combo, seriously consider spending the extra money on Coils. They are a much better buy. As for the braking issue, did the weight of the new wheel and tire get larger than your OEM? If so, that could be the reason your brakes dont stop as well. Big trucks w/ 24"+
go through brakes like it's their job. All that added rolling mass takes more to stop.
