discussion F30 Lowering Springs on M-Adaptive Suspension

[AdnaanHS]

Hi gents

So I haven't been able to find any threads on this topic hence I'm starting this in the hopes of gaining some knowledge.

I have an F30 335i Lux line with the M-Adaptive Suspension. Since it is a luxury line it sits a bit higher than I'd like.

I've been considering drop springs but I'm not sure whether that would be good considering the adjustments that the M-Adaptive Suspension makes in the different driving modes.

Basically I'd like to know if anyone has any insight on this and whether drop springs would mess with the adaptive dampers, and thus cause it to not function properly or to wear out faster.

I have HnR Sport spring sin my F20 M135i with M-Adaptive suspension. Nothing wrong with it at all, car still has the difference between modes of comfort and stiffening as well.

It is all good...just don't get springs that are too low and will have you change those shocks soon. Mine are low...and alreayd shocks need to change BUT that is because I hit potholes VERY hard and they were the cause. Otherwise, the rest of the car is perfect so I have to change the front 2 shocks together.

Eahc M-Adaptive shock is about R7k each...so treat them well
