Hi all,

I’ve got a 2015 320d xdrive m sport. I put some replica 20’s staggered fitment.
It doesn’t sit right or how I want it to, I think it looks odd, well the front does, the back sits better. I want to lower it, I think initially just with springs maybe coil overs later.

Any recommendations for springs and ride heights please? Information is overwhelming, I’ve read that they already sit 10mm lower, hard to believe looking at it!

Pictures will help!

Thanks chris

How I’d like it sit. I’m looking at wheel spacers too.

Ask in the UK section Chris; you'll get the best answers:

IIRC ACS springs are the one to go for for an xDrive

Your brave running 20s!

I run Eibach pro kit lowering springs on my RWD F31 alongside all new Bilstein B4S shocks and they have the car sitting perfectly for what I wanted, and not too low




You can get the Eibach springs for a xDrive also IIRC

Yours sits nice, do you have any problems with rubbing, the splitter catching or grounding out?

Cheers

Thank you

And no, not at all. I went for the Eibach's specifically as to not lower too much; those with the B4S shocks and a FULL suspension overhaul (ie every part bar front ARB bushes) and it's made the car superb to drive again

But I'm on 18s as the rural roads that surround me will make 19s and 20s square in no time

I’m looking for some 19’s, I want it to sit as well as yours.

With the Eibachs your stance will be about the same if you stick with OEM 19" tyre sizes or close to them...

I have been tempted with 437Ms myself; but with the roads local to me as they are; 18s are enough and they ride superbly too... Plus it makes the brakes really fill the space behind the wheels too
