XDRIVE H&R Springs **UPDATE**

BD997 · 10-27-2011, 09:29 AM

My local aftermarket guy @ Eastside Motoring just got word from Germany that the H&R Springs for the X-Drive PART# 28947-2 is still on back order and has not even shipped from there...
"These are still on back order. I don’t have a confirmed ETA yet. I know they
have not shipped from Germany and that usually means about a 6-8 week wait.
Your part number is correct."

And on a side note, I called Turner Motorsports a few days ago and they said 550i H&R Springs WILL NOT work with X-Drive cars

Thanks for the info.

btw, KW V3 for xdrive may not be in production as anticipated due to unknown reason. Originally, my shop contacted KW distributor back in the spring 2011 and was told the V3 (for xdrive) was in the last stage of testing and production should begin around October .... Now ... no go at all.

I wonder what the difference are in the 550i springs and the 55xi springs....

i just had the acs springs installed on my 535x. i have 19" wheels. i honestly didn't notice much difference in the front. the back looks good now. the springs were about 500 and the install with alignment was 380. the rd springs were about 900 for the xdrive. it's crazy!
