Hi, this weekend i had some new wheels and springs installed on my 335xi, from doing research I saw that the H&R Sport springs seem to give everyone else the perfect looking drop, but after having them installed on mine it looks really bad!

the rear seems ok, but the front looks almost stock???

I attached some pics, I guess im going to have to get coil overs and just wasted some money, i see stock beemers around town that are sitting lower than this, what gives???

also, i understand the car has to "settle" but i don't think its going to make the difference i was expecting

Yes i have an e90 xdrive with h&r sports will be replacing with eibachs.. I just hate the rake look.. Atlease your rears look ok.. My rear is dumped no finger gaps.. And my front has atlease 2 fingere

Im experiencing the same exact thing. probably going to just do H&R coils in the spring

very disheartening, why would they manufacture it like this, wasted money and car looks ridiculous

On the bright side, youll be getting coilovers, and your rims looks awesome!

Ya man.. Everday i wake up and see my car with a rake drives me nuts!!! I know i wasted money on h&r sports... Plus labour now i will be goig with eibachs match with my blisteins.. Ppl keep telling me to go with kw1s but i dont wanna end up spending so much

Okay what's going on here? this is what the H&R Sport Springs look's like on a E93. A E93 is that much heavier than a E92?

your drop looks perfect, this is the result I was looking for and when I was doing research that's how all e92 335's looked, but that is not the result on mine, I think it may have something to do with the xi....

Must be, shes tucking tire in the rear.... Ive always heard E93s are something like 200+ lbs heavier....?

I don't know, my eibach setup looks almost perfectly even, one finger (tight) front and rear.

Something is wrong there, as I've seen the H&R sports, and it should look tucked in the rear, and almost tucked up front.

What're toe & camber now?

You'll should do something about front end camber if you drop....plates come to mind. Or you might like the handling + don't mind tire wear.

The M Sport is already lowered from the factory. That's why you are running into this problem. The H&R Sport Springs are probably just slightly lower than the OEM springs you already had on the car. Therefore, it looks like you haven't lowered the car much because it already was.

Make sense? That's my best guess.

^ but he has xdrive? Does not come with sport suspension?

[ballistiq]

This is actually a lot lower than it came from stock, oh well need to buy coilovers

[Imbue]

what wheels are those? did you ever change your setup?
