Looks great, are they pinned and taped or just pinned?

Just lowered the x3m 😁

Can we talk about that lighting?

BeaminF97 what springs did you go for in the end?

I heard Eibach springs offer the following:
25mil front / 12% softer
20min rear / 5% softer

Better than OEM apparently.

Do you remember where you found this information... ?

I wish spring companies would tell us a lot more about the spring then just the estimated / approximated ride height reduction. Apparently the DINAN springs are just Eibach units that are repainted & rebranded. Wish we had more factual information at our fingertip to read in this regard.

A UK firm advised. They said that they took onboard customer feedback and Eibach worked to produce a softer lower set of springs. I’ll see if I can dig up the dealer YT video.

Looks great, how's the ride (soft/hard/loose or other) and any noises turning?

I do get some light noise when backing up while turning the wheel. The MSS is just too soft for my taste. I have coilover on my F36 for the past 7 years and it's feels much better than the MSS on my F98M.

For me there's enough negative to steer me away and choose between the HR's or go coilover. I just wish there was a more cost effective coilover option as the KW's although i'm sure are great they are very expensive at least imo. Thanks for your feedback.
