Coilovers for the E91 Xi

Is it really so that there are no coilovers for the Xi models out???

I just bought a set of 20" LM replicas for my gf's wagon but I can't put them on before I can drop the car on coils. Now they're just sitting in the garage...

Where did you get those replicas? I don't think I've seen LM replicas before.

There are springs out though for the xi's now. You can just get some H&R Sports if you want.

Those wheels appear to be the Luff M1's.

Thanks vodkarocket.

Upon doing a search, I realized there was quite a bit of info on them.
But they appear to not be good quality replicas.

Gotta keep in mind that you can get 5 sets of these for the price of one set of authentic LM's.

They are great wheels if you're going just for looks!
I would never put these on my M3 but figured they'd be ok on our daily driver.
The finish is actually pretty good and I don't think they're that soft either.
The only downside is probably the weight. (and of course real LM's look 10x better...)

btw, still suspensionless...
