I haven't picked it up yet, but looking good to me so far.....

Nice drop. The first picture the front looks just a tad lower than the rear. In the second picture the rear looks just a tad lower than the fronts. Must be the angle of the pictures.

Thanks. Talked to H&R beforehand and it is supposed to level it out so I think it’s the angle of the pics.

Let us know what you think of the handling and ride after you get some seat time.

The initial impression is that the ride quality is the same, maybe slightly better believe it or not. It is firm, but reduced bounce when hitting wavy sections in the road. There is a lot less body roll in the few corners I have taken.

The total ride height is lowered 1.5 inches in the front and 1 inch in the back. I would have like the front to be a little higher- H&R is probably one of the more aggressive setups, but I don't think it is too low. I probably need some spacers, just not sure how wide to go.

Did you go with the 28662-6 kit? Your car looks quite a bit lower than some of the other pics online. Looks good!

Yes, that is the kit# I used. It looks like the front wheel is up in the fender in the pics, but there is a slight gap when looking straight on. I love the new look, ride and handling qualities.

Im having the same issue- front is really low.

I might swap them out- MTS technik makes 25-30-40mm options for springs

Ordered the same springs for my 2023 440i and also went with 15mm spacers. I’ll share pics when everything is installed, I’m hoping by EOW. I have the same wheels from the factory that you have.

Got the springs and spacers installed Friday, a few pics below. Looks really good with the spacers. The ride has definitely changed, comfort mode is more of a sport mode feeling now, and car has a more bouncy feeling altogether. Not sure if springs will settle and soften up a bit.

Did you ever try the MST option? They have them front only which is 25mm (1 inch) vs the current 1.5 inch I have with the H&Rs. Not sure if they settled but the front definitely looks and feels too low now. I think raising the front a half and inch will level it out and improve the ride.

I ordered the MTS from vivid but they said it would take several months
I took a stab and bought godspeed springs, the ride height is even front to back
