Finally Dropped!!!

Finally dropped my e90xi today on HR Sports springs. Really loving the new look.




Was wondering can I throw spacers on the rear having an Xi vehicle?

That looks really good!

I've been wanting to lower my wife's e90 328i xdrive as well. How do you like the suspension? Do you notice an improvement in handling? Any rougher than stock?

Also, what lip is that? Any other pics of the car?

To answer your question about spacers, yes go for it. Wheelbase has no effect on the XI issues with rolling diameter of tires. I'm running 10mm front 18mm rear with no issues. Just check your fitment to figure out which offset will work for you

I love the suspension especially the nice drop. Improvement wise in handling the car handles pretty good on turns. No bouncy-ness.

This the link for the lip from eBay : https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/391152388175

I'll post more pics tomorrow.

Thanks for the suggestion I went to a couple rim places here in jersey for spacers but they wouldn't sell me any because they said that my transfer case would get messed up. I want to order some online online any suggestions where from? Can I see ur car with the spacers.

I don't have any pics of mine. I'll try and grab one tomorrow. I got mine of VRSF from Tiago. Message him on here. It all depends on your offset. I have stock style 162s so those spacers work best for me.
