Too low after ACS springs?
Hello,
4 months ago I bought ACS springs. Car looks good, ride is quite good, but in my opinion front springs are too soft. Also front of the car is rather too low, distance from ground to fenders is 69 cm (27,16"). I have EDC & standard wheels. What do you think? |

Looks perfect to me. What i would suggest is getting some 12 or 15mm spacers all around so you push out the wheels. Right now they look too recessed inwards.

I would suggest getting 15mm for the rear, and 12mm for the front. I had ACS springs with OEM wheels too, and got those spacer setup, and they looked awesome.

On what planet? Maybe one with a denser mass. On earth, this car is pushed to the perfect height.

Of course, look is very good, but I'm a little afraid about dampers.
I have spacers and another wheels, there are in this thread: http://f10.5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=774484 |

Don't know where OP is from, but here in Europe you can get chrome window trim with m-sport.

acs springs
Mine also sits that low and its bc we share the same part numbers for the front which seems to be lower than the rest. The 535xi have different part numbers than the reg 535i which seems to me that the xi will sit lower. Off ACS site
