I don't have bags on my car, but i'm very interested with how the car behaves with bags. Is the ride better? I mean, all the luxury mercs have bags and they have fantastic but mushy ride quality.

I went with Air lift 3p. Pretty much the best setup on the market right now. So far, so good. I have always been on springs or coil overs, but wanted to go with bags and glad I did. Once my camber arms get here, I can dial in my settings. I went with a somewhat simple trunk set up. I'll be adding a sub enclosure, reason for hanging my air tank.

Beautiful set-up man. If you don't mind me asking did you do-it-yourself or did an independent shop install it? I'm curious because I'm also thinking about the 3P system on my 335 (F30).

Why not? Airlift rides and handles amazing and give you the ability to ride low with the convenience of touching a button to go over bumps/inclines. Your question shows your ignorance towards the subject

Appreciatie it man. I don't have many other pictures as it's just been sitting in the garage waiting on my camber arms to come in. They're just tips, performance wise just going with Bootmod3, DP & CP.



Exactly. Static is cool but gets old after awhile. Btw, I moved from Chicago 3 years ago, don't miss the shitty weather and weak car scene.

Really? Guess those engineers at BMW overlooked air ride suspensions for performance and handling. I thought air lift suspensions were just for the fo' sho crowd.

Clearly you've never driven a car with a proper air setup...

Which camber arms you had ordered? I am from Germany and have a airlift 3h system and very happy with this setup. And now I am looking for camberarms but don't know which exactly I need
