2013 535 MSport Finally lowered on H&R's

MELLOWYELLOW06 · 05-21-2013, 11:32 AM

I have been meaning to do this for a while but
with work and the kids, just no time.
But I finally bit the bullet and did it. The car
feels and drives as it should have from the get go.
Gap is closed up nicely and isnt slammed to the point to
make driving a chore. Though I love the slammed look
this is great for now. Im sure it will settle a bit as time goes by.

With these tire sizes, there was no rubbing or fender rolling right?

and what brand of tires do you have if you don't mind me asking? Thanks!

There you go!! Very nice.

MELLOWYELLOW06 · 05-21-2013, 03:38 PM

No rubbing that I have noticed.

Two grown kids in the back and big dips and heard nothing.

Nitto NT555

I an get sick deals on these with the proper offsets that they machined for me.

Perfect flush with no spacers.

Nice drop, looks great.

Looking awesome! I just got a set of new rims too, it's gonna be a surprise!
Now you just need a reflector delete.

RickyB · 05-21-2013, 11:46 PM

Perfect

Cool, much better. The rear looks really aggressive, good to hear it doesn't rub.

Looks awesome now. Congrats! Now get rid of those orange reflectors.

nice job !!

how many hours of labor did they charge if you had it done at the dealer?

UAM951 · Yesterday, 10:14 AM

the drop look good. I was thinking about springs on 21s but still unsure. Still cant go wrong with coilovers.

Im doing 21's in a few weeks. I think it should be fine.
Though I like the looks of it slammed with coils,
it defeats the purpose of having a comfortable car to commute
to Downtown LA with.
