HI

Did you end up lowering your 330e ? i have fitted 20' 795m wheels and think 20mm would look just right

many thanks

No. I'm waiting for Dinan springs to come out. I also don't own a 330e, its a 330i.

For some odd reason, Eibach hasn't released these springs for the US market.

Hi,
Yesterday my Eibach Pro Kit lowering springs were installed on my 330e Touring (G21) M-Sport. My car has the M-adaptive suspensions (but without lowering from factory as it's a PHEV).

I now have a fault in the dashboard regarding the "chassis". And the ride is very bumpy. It's like drive a slammed car, it almost makes me sick. I really don't like it...

The wheel setup looks amazing. Do you mind sharing the wheel specs?

Any update on this? Since you have the fault on the dash, I think something is wrong... damage on dampers during install perhaps?

Thanks! Hope the front will drop alittle more to balance the drop.
From these pictures it "appears" that your rear wheels are slightly more flush than the fronts, this could be causing more shadow on the front making it appear that there is more gap. The best way to tell for sure would be measure from the center of each wheel to the wheel arch to see if the fronts are actually different than the rears. The eye can play tricks on you, measurements are a better way to tell.

Any update on whether this was resolved and if so how? Am in a similar situation with h&r lowering springs for the 330e but on a G20 with Adaptive suspension: bouncy ride takes the air out of your lungs whilst speaking and intermittently get “chassis function restricted” on dash whilst the dampers stiffen up when this happens.

Also having this, had ACS springs fitted today and have the chassis error and bouncy ride, any resolution?
