I can lower my rear down by 2" and when I do the rear rims are 2" from the bottom of the rear well. I'm on 205/50/15 BMWJNKY 10-30-2004, 10:42 PM I lowered my E21 by taking one whole coil out of the front and rear sprins.

Did you just keep the stockers and swap out springs?

Good point. bread320i 10-31-2004, 11:33 PM As for Waxfondlr This is a project car. Im actually farther than i planed at this point in time Im still in school and work full time. Time is money and money is time. By the way I do have a number and also have plans for mtech strip. You probley dont know this but this car is not street driven just track driven the rest of its life is spent in the garage...anyways I went with koni shocks from classic garage I think i payed like 190 with shipping for all four. awahl63 10-31-2004, 11:34 PM NIce ride Waxfondlr 11-01-2004, 12:06 PM read my other posts youd see that i was commending your car.. AND appologized for the fact that i failed to realize its a track car.. im just not a fan of stickers *shrug, such is life..is that your only bmw? |
