R56 Jcw Dropped, Thanks Axis

[Dean ///M]

He was the only guy who could supply me with only front H&R springs. Remember my problem with all the sound in the trunk that it picked up the front so much more. Last Friday I did a quick glaze with Menzerna products fitted the springs and used Foliatec spray film on the wheels. All done in 9Hrs. Here's some pics. Will drive her properly & report back on handling.

Hows the ride?

 

[Dean ///M]

The ride is a bit softer but I believe that it hardens up around the bends. They too part of the coil is soft but I believe that's how they are made for comfort and handling kind of progressive.

Thanks Dean.
Il be ordering in October, spoke to my manager today at bmw , I can put the springs in.

Does it lower by 35mm?

 

[Dean ///M]

It drops 30mm exactly to the mm I measured before & after couldn't believe it was the same both side cos normally the Lhs always sits higher: before pic:

 

[moranor@axis]

on another note how are the Brigstone re002? I ordered some today

 

[Jarv]

It's an awesome tyre. Good grip & quiet. 2.4xx 60ft is not bad on a fwd vehicle.

Hi Dean.i looked at your pics again, how much lower did it drop cause it looks similar to the standard height?

---

Or are the 1st pics you posted of how it looks with the drop? Cauae that looks niiiice!

 

[Dean ///M]

Yes first pic's is with the drop but note that I only did the front. Rear is lower than stock cos of sound install in the trunk.
