SOLD - Supreme power lowering perches e9x

SOLD SOLD SOLD.

Lowers the front by about 40mm.

Ideal if you want to keep stock suspension but just close up the front gap a little. Can also be used with lowering springs.

Be aware that these do rely on your top mounts being in good condition. If they're worn you'll hear knocking. Might be a good idea to replace your top mounts too if you're on 100k+ miles.

I put them on to bring the front down after not being happy with the drop from Eibach pros, but after installing a VRSF INTERCOOLER I'm bringing the front back up a bit as the Intetcooler is very close to the ground otherwise.

What do you want for them? Did it get front end heavy on the the Eibachs?

Sorry dude, I'm after £65 posted. I didn't notice it being front end heavy at all. If anything my 355i gets too light on the front end under acceleration (not due to these).

I put these on and they soon revealed my top mounts needed replacing, so I took them back out. After fitting the big bad intercooler, I'm going to take a different approach on suspension. Only had these in a week and didn't get any photos. With them in, on my e91 with Eibach Pro springs, they made the gap on the front arch identical to the gap on the rear arch so it gave the car the perfect stance. On standard springs/M Sport springs I imagine it would do the same.

Do SP do different drop versions of these lowering perches?
AFAIK they only do one size (in XI and non-XI version) and they only lower the front by about 0.5" = 12mm?
I'd be interested in them if the drop is around 12mm, 40mm sounds extreme and I don't think it's even achievable with just the lowering perches?

You're right there's only one drop and two versions. These are the RWD version. my estimate of 40mm includes eibachs lowering then as that should have been around 35mm but as my ride is a 335i manual transmission e91 and Eibach use the same Spring on the e91 regardless of if you're in a 335d auto or a 335i Manual I only got about a 25mm drop.

PM me if you're interested. Cheers.
