I still can't find a reliable shop in CT to do the work. Any suggestions? I'm probably going to bite the bullet soon and have the dealer do it for $1,200+ which sucks! :thumbsdown:
Hell..with pics, I might have even tried it myself. All those fancy "car terms" had my head spinning! I'd have to look them all up online just to know what a sway bar is. Hehe.

Hi members

I'm planning to take my car to car repair to be installed H&R springs. Like we all know BMW don't offer lowering set for AWD cars. Did you notice any kind of decreasing in driving stability or something else disadvantage or just got better and stiffer...

P.S Thanks for the instructions, I bet it'll help their job.

Thanks guys

hey, thankyou for the post, im thinkin about getting my e60 lowered, the car has 20's on it but i really wanted to know will lowering the car have a detrimental afect on the ride. i have been advised that lowering my bmw using aftermarket springs will lead to a very bumpy ride.
