Padfan...did you see EAS's thread... http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1017256 Post #166 is a pic my car if you want to see the height (didn't have the spacers installed in those pics as they were out of stock, but they were installed at a later date) There's a ton of other pics of M4/M3s with KW HAS, H&R springs and different spacer combinations in the thead. As for the ride of the KW HAS (I have the standard, non-adaptive suspension w/ stock 19s), its really smoother than I anticipated. That's not to say it isn't a bit harsh, but the stock non-adaptive suspension was a bit harsh as well. Comparing the KW vs the stock, non adaptive suspension...I honestly can't tell much of a difference (that is a testament to how well the KW HAS is matched to the stock dampers). Also, this isn't my daily, but if it was, I would think the ride would be too tiresome to drive everyday...but I'm getting old. If I was in my 20s (I'm 42), I probably would've lowered it more and driven it that way 24/7. I just asked EAS to lower the front to match the rear so I didn't lower it much. The rear was not lowered beyond the highest KW setting. I highly recommend the KW HAS if all you want to do is even out the reverse rake. I don't track this car at all, but if I did, I would be looking at KW V2/V3s or TC Kline C/Os. Also, the Macht Schnells spacers seem to be a quality product...have had zero issues with them.

Mine; I had a 2011 335i x-drive m sport I am only advising on springs a lone, entirely new suspension that's a different story. I dropped my car on h&r springs can't recall which, It ruined the ride. It became much rougher felt not as firm on the road and i was extremely disappointed with my outcome. It made the look more aggressive and i loved the look but, appearance over performance for me doesn't compare. |
