E93 Convertible Guys...What are you lowered on??

Hollywood Hogan · 03-09-2011, 10:15 AM

I'm looking for options to lower my E93 at the moment and have found a few options:

Eibach Springs
KWV3 Coilovers
KW Spring Sleeve Kit

What are you vert guys lowered on? I'm looking to get a decent drop while hopefully keep the car as comfortable on the street as possible.

I've read good things about Ground Control but their website lists only E92 and E90s for their Coilover kit. Any suggestions and pics if possible?

Dinan Stage 2 love it! perfect drop very compliant handles 100% better

xiliy · 03-14-2011, 07:00 PM

Dinan stage 1

SCtud · 03-17-2011, 05:02 PM

Dinan Stage I for me too. Better drop on the E93 than the Dinan's on E90/92 for whatever reason.

Hollywood Hogan · 03-17-2011, 09:58 PM

Can you guys post some pics of your car with whatever aftermarket suspension you are running?

Hollywood Hogan · 03-22-2011, 12:44 PM

I've seen one members e93 with dinan suspension are there any others out there! Please post some pics

Im running the eibach pro kit. Very happy with the results both aesthetically and functionally.

Hollywood Hogan · 03-22-2011, 01:34 PM

^^ thanks for the pic...drop looks really good on the eibachs. Would you say the front sits higher than the rear for our e93's? I've heard eibachs generally make the coupes sit higher in the front

Poleposition · 03-22-2011, 01:41 PM

I dont think so. I think its a pretty even drop. Keep in mind, as far as eibachs go, the E93 springs are a different part # than the coupes. Here's a pic on my winter setup which are the stock 18's.

SCtud · 03-22-2011, 09:56 PM

dinan with 20" bbs lm

Hollywood Hogan · 03-23-2011, 10:17 AM

^^ wow that looks good...do you by chance have a side shot of the car so we can better see the drop? Thanks!

yankis · 03-23-2011, 01:04 PM

Is anyone running H&R coilovers? Would like to see pics of those as well on an E93

Gogo · 04-12-2011, 04:28 AM

I running Gc kit on my cab lowered it 40-50 all round I very very very happy with it!! I know how I wanted my car too look and knew springs couldn't do it so went Gc so I could keep ecd. Kw are far more then what I needed ie full coilovers, no ecd and price!!!
Btw how do I load pics off my iphone using the app??

DINAN stage 3 best choice i made very very happy

cole328 · 08-28-2011, 09:05 AM

Dinan stage 2 very happy with the stance and the improved handling its my DD, so did not see the need for the stage 3 (since i believe its just the addition of camber plates)

diablito · 08-28-2011, 04:16 PM

I loveit with the 18's

EIBACHS PRO KIT
15MM SPACERS
19" 19X9 / 19/10

Car is lower with better handling plus more comfort than OEM.
