Doing a little experiment for Xi owners...

I think I'll wait until matching struts are sold for the fronts. If not I'll be joining in on the KWv3 bandwagon.

Any updates on the spring install? Eibach seems to sell a pro-kit for E90 xi models, but its only sold in Europe. =(

i got the front rake going too.. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=234419

OP, please read my post, and let me know (since you did the install yourself, maybe you noticed the spring seats on top).. are they removable.. and maybe that will drop the front another .5-.75"

thanks!

Yep, theres about a .5 inch spacer. I left it in, but plan on taking it out when i gets warmer. Hopefully I dont have to tear everthing apart again, it would be great if i could just let the three strut top bolts go and have enough room to wiggle it out but i doubt thats going to happen...
