New Suspension Height Question

e92_BMW · 04-21-2015, 10:38 AM

Whats up guys, i'm getting a set of new wheels and new suspension for the summer on my e92 335xi....i really want to go a little bit lower with the suspension so what do you guys recommend? i don't want her to sit too low but definitely lower than stock, do you think dropping her 1" in the front and 1.2" in the back will show a good amount of a difference from stock but not too much? Also i'm planning on throwing some new M3 Style 19" wheels on her too

Thanks!

By the way i'm planning on getting the CSL wheels, do you guys think i should get them in 18" or 19" on a 335xi?

drop an inch is good. will still look good and shouldn't make your ride quality suffer too much. go with 18". better performance than 19" due to less unsprung weight,
