Can you post an updated pic when it finally settles. I want to see the final drop.

I will do so. It might take a while because i dont use the car as a daily driver

So far so good

I think if anything im going to have problems with my wheel spacers being a little on the aggressive side. I just need to be careful of large dips in the road.

Im really impressed with the eibach springs!

Jack28 · 12-06-2010, 03:39 AM

Nice clean drop. Congrats!!

GOLFFRR · 12-06-2010, 09:11 AM

awesome set up. the car looks great

alpina527 · 12-06-2010, 10:48 AM

I would think you will definitely get rubbing when you have the alignment done.

I have the Eibachs with shaved mounts and e36 bump stops with 10mm spacers all round. It looks too close to go with even a 12mm spacer.

alibrahim · 12-06-2010, 11:56 AM

it's gonna go lower than that in one to two weeks

. very nice

I called my insurance company and listed my mods and they haven't charged me any extra. I didnt insure the mods i just listed them incase anything happens.

Im going to get a wheel alignment done this weekend. Fingers crossed!!

Dieselino · 12-06-2010, 01:28 PM

I am running Eibachs with shaved guide supports and e36 bump stops with 12mm front and 10 rear spacers with no rubbing. Anything more agressive on the spacers I think is over kill, especially on the rear. The rears are almost flush if not a little proud of the wheel flat.

RedlineMotorworks · 12-06-2010, 01:50 PM

Looks great Andrew!!

Interesting.. I havent had any rubbing issues at all. I did have a little rub when i hit a speedhump a little on the fast side but other than that its been good.
If the spacers do cause rubbing then i will remove them but for now i like the stance.

newzat_tr · 12-07-2010, 03:10 PM

did rear rubbed??

anthony @ eas · 12-07-2010, 05:22 PM

Great stance!

dillon733 · 12-07-2010, 09:07 PM

perfect ride height IMO. Car looks great!

MLife168 · 01-15-2011, 12:34 PM

andrew270681: Now that you've had the car lowered for a while, spacers installed, and alignment done...are you still not having any rubbing issues?

I'm planning on lowering my car this month, e92 running same rims and tires as yours. Debating between 12mm rear and 15mm front vs 15mm rear and 18mm front.

shaggag mentioned he was on eibachs as well but rubbing with 12 rear. Wonder if it has to do with him running stock 18s.
