Their spec claims 1.4" rear and 1.75" front - compared to Xdrive height I believe.

I disagree in this instance. I have no desire to have this car sit any lower. It's a daily driver 330i. It needs to be able to get in and out of parking lots and driveways. Plus I would not want to reduce the suspension travel any more than I already have. I would get coil-overs if I wanted to go lower. I think we agree on my last statement.

Based on your signature I see that you also have an E92 M3. That's the car that needs the coil-overs and the top quality suspension. The wagon is a cruiser with decent power but it's never going to be at a performance level comparable to the M3. My perspective is that the Wagon needs to be functional.

Nope, not original. 19x8.5" and 19x9.5." Et 35 & 40 respectively. Machine finished with dark grey painted interior.

Bought them from Romango3

I imagine you can find similar replicas.

I'm surprised not seeing any Glacier Silver here. I personally wanted Melbourne red or Estoril blue but I got a deal on glacier silver. Where my peeps at? ?

I've been too lazy to take a nice pic of it. I figured there would be more owners seeing as silver is such a popular color overall.

Gotcha- well either none of your peeps take photos, or there aren't as many silver wagons? Still need photos!
