Again, with stock tires, 12mm Macht Schnell spacers on all four corners, and 3 mechanics in the car, there was no rubbing whatsoever! Let me know if this helps!

Perfect! Exactly the drop im looking to do! Many thanks Bro!

Must be because of the lip! I imagine that would scrape even if your a tad bit higher.

This and spacers is probably the best modification you can do to the M4/M3...I hated that front gap. Makes me like the car much more now, this is how it should have come from factory...my 2006 E90 has minimal gap compared to OEM M4 settings...

i'm on HAS. Went with a conservative drop for about two weeks then went back and maxed it out. H&Rs are still lower. i don't really scrap unless the road is terrible. i can angle out of some pretty steep driveways going forward even with my lip.

I did not want to lose any of the functions/capabilities that came with the car.

Mega thx for the detailed response.

Really those are maxed out? They look really nice man. Any spacers or offset from stock?

no spacers, vorsteiner makes the offset m3/m4 specific.

And the remaining gaps in back and front are the same? Or can the gap in the back be a couple of milimeters larger than the front?

Bump! Anyone else care to showcase their M4 with KW HAS?

car looks great man.

is it hard adjusting the height?

Lorde · 10-10-2015, 02:48 PM

Just give your installer your requirements (no rub and to not make it look stupid) and let it be their problem. That is what you are paying for and if they mess it up, you can always take it back until it is the way you want it.
