My 335i is lowered and I had an issue where i once hit a pothole and my undercarriage shield got bent in half and lifted the car unevenly up on one side. It made steering the car difficult and I had to quickly pull over and then try and rip the shield off by hand since I didn't have tools with me to take it off properly. I was lucky that no one got hurt and other than the shield there was no other damage. After that incident my driving drastically changed with the car. Lowering the car kinda kills the fun when you have to drive the car like you are in a one sided dodgeball match. The roads over here are terrible too. We had our roads newly repaved in November, then comes December and they do construction into the ground and destroyed the roads they just repaved. It is almost February they work was completed but they never fixed the road.

Exactly true! So much goes into a proper lowered height that many don’t know about. I’ve had all 6 of my cars lowered with the proper suspension except the 335i. No need to lower that as it’s RWD + sport package as there isn’t any wheel gap space. Love the look with the speakers and the handling in stock form that I’m happy with 😀 Now my wife on the other hand doesn’t know how to drive a lowered car when she drives mine 🤣😬 Oh yeah...keep the beard 👍🏻

Recently changed my stock M140i springs, by the way, this car is not available in the US sadly, you guys don’t know what you are missing with this little beast 🤘🏼 3 Litre/6 cylinder. 0-60mph 4.6 seconds. Anyway, I lowered it on Eibach pros, 25mm front and 20mm at the rear. Added some wheel spacers too to give the tyres a bit more width, as well as it looking more bad ass. The ride feels more connected but extremely harsh. So many potholes near to me. So I’ve gone with the M Performance Springs to compliment my adaptive dampers. They offer a 10-15mm drop. Car doesn’t look as mean but it’s a compromise for the poor road surface quality.

You youngins and your tuner instincts ! I got an '08 E85 Z4 3.0 SI with the "sport package" . Even though it's a 'facelift' I saw a Z4M and suddenly had to have that front bumper. So that was fun doing that mod, except for how low the 'fangs ' sit. Actually touching up fang damage (even with metal skid plates attached) is pretty much a Spring Clean Up task. I believe the Sport Suspension is slightly lower, and for me that's low enough. One thing older folks , driving a lowered car, or as low as my Zed is, have to deal with getting into and out of the thing while still maintaining some sense of decorum ! ps In case some think I'm a cantankerous old git, I think the tuner and modding culture is one of the best automotive trends.

I bought lowering springs and ebay "OEM" style replacement shocks.What I did to reduce the suspension play was add more subframe bracing and sway bars, which made the chassis much stiffer. The ride now feels like a middle between"firm" and "soft".Road bumps and uneven terrain don't feel as dramatic and I can actually drive through them at higher speeds.

I reversed carefully and i presume one of the screw heads that hold the under tray to bumper grabbed hold of the kerb, I heard a crack and the chin was split in two down the middle. You have got to be so careful with these kinda things, which is why iv decided not to lower my car lol.

Having lower springs put on my daily (only) car this week but I'm not going over the top, the drop is only about 30mm, also getting new suitable KYB shocks fitted as the ones on there have done over 160,000 kays (100k miles) so hopefully I don't have any issues. We don't have snow issues here and the roads are not that bad where I normally drive. Right now I can only think of one possible car park I might have issues with, so will take it super slow the first time through.

you have to take into account the most important thing: Kinematic performance of your suspension arms. They are set under a certain angle. Ideal sitting position is when inside joint of the suspension arm is sitting higher than the outside joint (check front view of modern open wheel race cars like F3 or F1, arms are not set horizontally). When you lower the car you mess things up. It might feel stiffer and you think it turns better but its ultimate kinematic performance is reduced. Do your research on how much you can lower your particular car without negatively affecting its performance.
