LCI x3m lowered pics?

SupraCooper · 04-28-2022, 05:26 PM

I'm sure this topic has been covered somewhere, but can you all post pics of a LCI x3m with springs? I would like to see how h&r looks compared to mss. Preferably how the new 892m wheels look when lowered with spacers etc.

My MBB comp with 892s should be here in June and trying to decide what route to go.
Thanks

H&R, but not 892s

Looks awesome! Right color tho. How is the ride, any better with the H&r springs?

About the same as stock, only lower -- which was the objective for me.

That's what matter most to me too. Plus I heard the lci ride is better than the pre-lci any way.

MSS with 12mm spacers

Would absolutely love more pictures of this please. My car is identical on the outside and I’m tempted by the mss and some spacers

I like the MSS kit. But the only fear I have is that the springs are softer then stock & therefore some of the dynamic handling will go away.

It doesn't.
I took it to the track and it was good.

That's so awesome RG sport

The MSS above in marina bay blue is pretty much the same thing.

So I did some research and found out the bms wheel spacers I have (I bought originally for g42 m240i) will fit my 2022 x3m comp. They are 13mm and 15mm

You think I would be okay to do 15mm front and 13mm in the rear on the x3m?

Yes. I run 15mm all around with no issues

Yeah I know you can do 15 all around but if 13mm in the rear would look funny or if I should do 13s in the front and 15s in the rear?

I don't think you will visually be able to tell 2mm's no

Yes, they do fit.
It will be ok to do 15 front and 13 rear. Just look a little awkward, but some guys do that setup.

Do you have to use some kind of special tool When doing the alignment after installing spacers and springs? That's what some tech was trying to tell me

That's new, lol.
No special tool needed to do alignment.
You do need special BMW tool to do the spring, if you want to follow BMW instruction.
But, you'll manage with regular off the shelves tools. Cuz, I managed.
