Hey guys,

Finally got her all cleaned up and snapped a couple quick pictures. Lowered on MS springs with 15 rear and 12 up front.

Does anyone else with MS springs have a gap up front but none in the rear?

Thanks

That look great! I was looking to possibly do that to my M3, how does it ride for you?

looks great, always fun to take that initial drive after you just cleaned the beast, right!

I like this drop. Are you on adaptive suspension? And did you use the spacers for the rear springs that are supposed to be included with the MS springs?

I did use the spacers, the front just seems higher then the other MS installs I have seen.

Can you post more pictures but closer? I think it looks great but still kind of far to see the gap really.

Well, according to the Macht Shnell specs, the drops looks correct. Most drops on the market seems to be lower in front for the drop but not low enough to make it like the rear. This is the case with Eibach, Swift Spec-R, etc. You might have to go with something like the H&R Super Sport or the KW HAS if you want to lower the front more and keep the rear the same lowered height. That or go full coils. IMO, your car looks fantastic.

I have a set of Swift (drop 1.1" fronts and 0.9" rears) and MS spacers (15mm fronts and 12mm rears) but I know the from will still be a tad bit higher than the rear after the drop. It's okay with me as the gap will be less noticeable but it will still be a drop like yours so it will still look clean.

Yea the drop looks real good. I think MS springs are in my future!
