Dinan springs and bump stops installed. Of course it started pouring rain after I pulled away. Will report back my experience with it once I have more seat time. Initial impressions are positive. Ride feels more composed and less choppy over imperfect roads.

Almost forgot and hopefully RoWoX3M can back up my experience. I can't tell the difference in ride quality between stock and lowered on the Dinan springs w/bumpstops. I can feel the steering being more direct but that may be from the alignment because the stock numbers were off.

RoWoX3M - those spring lower the X3M more than I thought. Looks great though!

I must say that overall ride quality and handling has been positive. It hasn't softened the ride but it's eliminated the harshness for everyday driving. Also noticed it inspires more confidence in bends and turns. Touch less body roll. The only setback is after install I noticed some noise coming from the rear. Reported this to Dinan who is sending out coil isolators to be installed. These will now come standard with the kit.

Hi Dinan_Engineering - will these springs work with a 2019 X3 M40i? If not, any plans to support it?

As far as actually developing springs specific to the G01 -- there are no plans at present to develop any hard parts for the chassis. |

Sounds like it'd be a gamble and I'd rather not find out the hard way that either the ride is way too harsh because it was meant for a different platform, or doesn't work at all. Thanks.

Ok folks. After some back and forth with Dinan tech support and my local installer, finally have a quick and easy solution to the clinks and clanks from the suspension. Had rubber isolators installed yesterday which now allows me to enjoy this kit as intended. Dinan support was excellent and glad the issue is finally resolved.
