H&Rs installed on 14 550i.

combatbmw · 12-19-2013, 09:46 PM

Pics to come.
Impressions.. Lowered it.. I have about 2 fingers in the front. 2 in rear gap on stock 19s. So after it settles I know it will go even lower.

Driving.. To be honest. Feels the same. Exactly. I thought it would be a lot stiffer in sports + but I really can't tell you I noticed a difference.

I haven't aligned it yet so maybe that's why. Any thoughts?

Fingers don't count without photos...

I know you guys want pics.

But if you read my post im asking a specific question, the people with installed springs, how much stiffer did it get vs stock, if you already have msport model.

Ill pos pics when car settles in a few weeks. Fresh spring installs need time to settle.

Two fingers gap still sounds a bit much for a lowered.

I have a 2013 550i with H&R installed for about 4-5 months (something like that). I have exactly 2 fingers in the front and a little less than 2 fingers in the rear (about 1.5 fingers)

yes im about the same right now. car ride didnt change one bit, car sits perfect, and i use perfect as the word of choice, not nice. car looks perfect rides like stock little firmer in sports mode ....

cant go wrong with these. this is my 4th car with H&Rs

horsepit · 12-29-2013, 09:17 PM

I'm so amazed how my H&Rs dropped my 550 over 2". I want to install them on my 2014 but want the same results. I hear so may reports of only an inch drop.

Damn ......two fingers in the rear? Be careful with that.

sorry man, couldn't help the 8th grade humor. Your ride height looks good!
