What are the options for lower seats?
I love my 2014 X3 35i with sport seats, however I don’t like how high I sit in it even at the lowest setting. Are there sport seats from other models that fit in it so that I can sit lower? I am not a tall guy, just 5’10” with a long trunk, but I am used to sedans and like sitting closer to the floor.
Thanks for your time in responding! |

You can cut flat studs lower rails are bolted on the floor. You need to take out seat, unfold carpet and swear a lot during hacksaw job. It is doable and that way you can drop seat around 10 mm.
On top of that you can install lowering springs, which will give you between 25 to 35 mm of drop. I went with both mods (Eibach -25 mm + Bilstein B8) and seating in and out is optimal for me (177 cm tall) - no more diving as in 3 series and no more climbing or falling as of too tall bed. |
