All you guys lowered that much with coilovers and aftermarket springs/shocks, do your cars handle better? Are you giving up a lot in ride comfort?
Experience any additional noise? Any adverse effects on the suspension or handling, or have you upgraded to aftermarket/poly bushings and/or sway bars? I would imagine this much lowering exerts additional strain on your bushings.

lowering can cause scarping, rubbing so additional noise all depends on how low you end up going, or how wide of wheels you put on, and tires sizes. so many factors will affect that category. I'm running all stock bushings, and sway bars. if you are tracking the car then it would probably be a good idea to change those, but not necessary.

But for me comfort and daily driving usability is very important. Now with the KW3, the car is stiffer but is much more comfortable for me. Hard to desribe but you gotta feel it. Going through holes is not a problem anymore. I haven't lowered it but it looks lower and more aggressive than before. And the handling is phenomenal. Taking a curve at high speed is a joy now as it should be. This is how it looked at the beginning: This is how it looks now: |

Whats the deal with that? He started his company in 2013, so he obviously had to have known there was another Roots brand out there with the same logo. I ask why you put that particular decal on your car and I got my answer, but it's no better than putting an Oakley banner on your car, whether your friend owns it or not. Nice car, but I'm not a fan of the decals. |

You asked a question and got and answer, it's just a small as logo, it's not a "banner" I designed my livery myself or laymen terms the" stripe on my car" because I wanted something different that flows with my other modifications. You know so my car doesn't look like every single other cookie cutter e9x around here. The fading is too give the allure of motion when my car is parked and makes it look as if it is moving a lot faster while actually moving as seen in rolling shots. Anywho back to the topic of this thread AWD with fitment |

Not everyone is going to like it, I personally think it looks gay, especially on a BMW, but that's my opinion. I'm sure back in '05 it would have been cool. Don't mind me, I hate any decals or "livery" that isn't OEM. Hell, I even hate OEM sometimes. |
