The perfect drop! The gap between your tyres and wheel arches / fenders is equal all the way around - far nicer than the slammed look imo.

Hi DV,

It's kind of hard to see from the pics since your car is black. What's the gap now after you lower it? Did you get the chance to let it settle yet before taking the pictures?

The lighting was bad that day too. The springs are settled in those pictures. The car is about an inch lower in the front and maybe .5 in the rear.

i think i might swap out my H&R sports for Eibachs when i get new shocks. that drop does look perfect and as it stands (or sits) my ride feels pretty slammed

He said it "feels pretty slammed" so I think he's referring to ride quality, rather than height. The Eibach Pro's will give you about the same drop as your H&R's without sacrificing ride quality. I want my BMW to ride like a BMW.

That looks really nice on the 162 alloys actually.

Are you running spacers too ? the wheels look very flush with the arches.

Just read the earlier posts, 15mm spacers in the rear. Nice.
