Hi Everyone,
Parting out the 545i as we speak. Up for sale are my JIC/CROSS coilovers. They have less than 2000 miles on them in perfect working condition. Warranty is still intact through JIC/CROSS.
MSRP - $2747.80
Minimum Advertised Price - $2610
Your Price - $1500 shipped OBO
They are getting removed from the car right now so no current pictures, but here are some from when I first had them.
I will post more pics once I have them off the car.
For more information about the coils check out

Please note these are not sold through Acute Performance, but through me privately.

You say these coilovers have 2000 miles on them... how many miles do they have left?
The reason I'm asking is that I bought 20" wheels for my car, and reading your posts, I figure these coilovers would be a great addition to my car, given its features, I'm guessing, they would give me great suspension while allowing me to lower my car without sacrificing comfort, correct?
Please enlighten me as I must confess, I am a completely ignorant about coilovers... and most other car parts
Many thanks
Kelvin

Coilovers last a very long time upwards of 60k-80k miles.
Coilovers vs Springs
When people buy springs and use them with their stock shocks the ride is uncomfortable and the shocks will wear prematurely. Whereas coilovers, the entire assembly is built to work together. You also get the ability to adjust ride height and compression.
In terms of comfortability, no aftermarket suspension setup is going to be equal or more comfortable than stock, it just doesn't happen. What makes the CROSS a great setup is that they are great for daily driving while minimizing body roll.
Make sense?
