I have 18" wheels squared off and I put 15mm on the back and 5mm on the front. I picked them up on Ebay from Dubstop. easy installation and does make a difference. Here is a view from the back.

Ooh, looks great! Thanks for the advice! Will look into it. How easy is install! If I can change a tire, can I install spacers? Is it that easy?

if you can pull he wheel off you can place the spacers on. they lay right on top of the rotor and they will come with new lug bolts. I believe it took me about 30 minutes to put all four on.

Ok thanks! Guess it might be time for me to buy a low profile jack.

I'm thinking about just putting h&r springs on my car that has stock struts and shocks. But I read a lot of member here say the ride quality got worst and recommend koni and springs or coilovers. How is the ride since the drop?

Although today was my first time encountering speed bumps and I was scraping hard even though I was going super slow. Can't say I like that! It's sooo annoying!

Wait till you add a lip

Awesome that you went with suspension mod early instead of getting a m3 kit at stock 4x4 height like many do...

I think the sound youre hearing is the speed flap in front of the front tires. i dont think your front is low enough to rub on speed bumps. those flaps are the lowest hanging fruit on your hot e92 body
