[00bmw323]

so my rear is perfect! but my front is a little high..i want the front to tuck most if not all the tire like my rear..how can i do this..different springs? or can i just remove the adjustable part? is that safe? any help.
want my front like this..dont mind the stock rims

take the helper spring out in the front that should do the trick. its the small spring on the bottom.

if you look in your third picture, you'll see the big spring/black piece/helper spring/locker

ya i think the helper spring taken out will do it, idk how good thats gonna be for the shock though. u must scrape on everything.

also you need shorter endlinks

you can just remove your front sway bar, so the endlinks dont pop. more coilovers are designed to be used with or without the helper springs. the helper spring is there to ease the ride and add a little comfort

Before you go and remove the helper... do you have the bumpstops in? Because if you do, I suspect you're sitting on them (and trying to compress them) and trimming them would probably get you more low at the same setting you are at.

may need to trim your bumpstops, but you can remove your helper spring, and that should get you 1-1.5" or so...if that's not enough you can also remove one of the adjusters for a little bit extra.

i'm not too sure about e46, but you may be able to buy shortened bushings that can help.

Im in love with your drop! What Coilovers do you have?

this. are those racelands? i experimented with those before i got the ground controls, and from what i noticed, when you are that low, the car is sitting on the bumpstop even before you thread it all the way down. trim it in half and see what results from it. i cant speak for the e46, but on the e36 coils, that was the issue. if it doesnt do anything, you can always put the trimmed half back in. btw, the car looks clean even with those wheels.

hit us up at Migs Motorsports we have 6inch 9kg/mm B+G springs that will definately make u lower in front!
