St v1 installation Question

Hello, i just installed the V1 St's on my e90 335xi.

all i have to say is wow, what a diffrence, i loaded this thing up with so much power before even touching the suspension, and this rides sooooo much better, if you havnt rid yourself of that stock garbage they give us xdrive guys do it asap!!

So the rears adjusted perfectly in position, for some reason i cant seem to get the fronts low enough, is it just me or does the black spindle that adjusts the height on the fronts hit the sway link that connect to the strut body?

when i try to lower it down, i can hear it rub while lowering.
Im certain thats not normal, or is it?

Im good for clearence with the wheels, but have left the front higher then ehat i prefer until i can get some answers.

Thank you everyone!

Here are some pictures of the car in progress!

Subbed for more info, I also have an E90 335xi. How much for your V1 coilovers? And you said ST brand, not KW?

ST since car doesnt see snow much decided to not waste the money since they are practically the same thing.


I spent $1200 CAD for the kit.

Talked to a friend who is an Indy, he told me that if you want it go lower in the front you need todo a sway link Delete, can anyone confirm this?
