H&R Springs Installed (Pictures included)
Finally got the car lowered 1 year after ordering these springs from EAS . H&R springs and 15mm Macht shnell spacers all the way around. Turned out really nice, car should settle bit more by a week or two. Next is cerium delete.
During the install of the spacers, I washed each wheel and tire inside and out. Last edited by 12v_dub; 08-17-2019 at 09:39 PM.. |

How much lowered did you get? Looks like nice hatch ack now . We need hatchbacks in usa .
Is the purple from iron x? How much was the springs and installation. Looks awesome. I felt that driving the x3 and taking turns felt like it will rollover sometimes but this will help with tight turns in high speeds. Only drawback to lowering is that those curb scrapes |

If you install spacers, is there any issue using the temp spare?

How much lowered did you get?
I didnt measure, but it's around 1.25 on the front and .75 in the rear. should settle more down the road Is the purple from iron x? Purple is me using wheel cleaner from Adams polishes. How much was the springs and installation. I paid around $530 for labor including alignment. Spacers were done by me. |

So you'd simply slide the spacer off and use the original bolts, right? Thanks for that. btw, a spare is an option, even with run-flats. At some point, I want to swap out the run-flats, so I ordered the spare.

My buddy sent me over couple of pictures from his shop of all the old cerium trim pieces getting painted in glossy black. Can't wait to install them.

Good looking stance with the new springs and spacers.
