Hi all,
I recently acquired a 440 xDrive Gran Coupe. But the wheel gap is really annoying me (I can fit 4 fingers between the tire and the top of the arch)... and it just seems like the wheel is undersized - though it is to spec: 225/45/R18
I'm looking to address this issue in a few ways:
- Larger wheels + tires to fill the gap... perhaps 245/40/R19
- Lower the vehicle by at least 1", maybe even 1.25"
For method 2 - I've done a bit of research and have heard of the following options
- Dinan springs + shockware
- AC Schnitzer springs
- KW Coilovers
- Ohlin Road & Track
I do have to mention that I think my car does have m-adaptive suspension (becomes much stiffer in Sport/Sport+dynamic traction) - although I couldn't confirm that with BMW vin lookup.
I do want that flexibility in changing suspension stiffness - because I do daily drive the vehicle and the car is definitely more comfortable in "Comfort". I was wondering if the coilovers from KW would delete that, and how about the other options (Dinan, AC Schnitzer, etc.)
Thanks in advance!
