2023 M340i lowered on H&R

I just lowered my LCI M340i on the H&R lowering springs and also installed the Kies 13mm spacers. In my opinion the 13mm are perfect with these lowering springs, no rubbing yet and the fitment looks great.

Looks really great! Is that Dravit Grey? How do you like the handling/ride quality with the H&R springs?

It feels great. Still soft where needed but overall handling has noticeably improved. I do have the adaptive m suspension as well. (Yes this is Dravit.)

I haven’t noticed any rubbing. I drove it cross country after and everything is fine. No weird noises or anything. There was a chassis warning but went away after turning the car off and back on.

Is your M340i RWD or xDrive? Are you using the 2023 330i H&R Springs (28662-1) if you are RWD?

looks great @A.Bissey, I wanted to get lowering springs but was worried about the car hitting the ground and damaging the underside, does this happen?

Also live in NY/NJ so the roads aren't the smoothest
