when i lived in center city. around 17th and market a while back the roads sucked balls for lowered cars. especially when they are doing construction. they dig ditches and never fully fill them
These are about the same price as H&R 1.2 inch drop all around. The AST have 1.2 drop front, 1.4 rear. I wonder why they drop more in the rear…. Anyway car looks great I’ll probably go AST because everyone is and it looks good
I think I’m going the eibachs first. Need to do that and spacers. I kinda like how the rear looks as far as gap. Who do you have in the area that’s reasonable. I’m in Malvern but in Philly daily.
AST goes lower in the front. kw can go lower in the rear but it doesnt go as low up front so it would just look silly if you lower it more than the front. ride is basically the same on both. id go AST over KW for sure
For me the perfect fitment is just prior to getting any rubbing. That’s a deal breaker for me. Even though it looks amazing. In a high performance vehicle, I value that performance too much to sacrifice performance over looks to that point.
@@sundeepm3 yeah it’s a fine balance and can be difficult to perfect. Worth spending the time and money to get it right as it makes the car that much more enjoyable to drive.
Good breakdown!
Thank you!

Center city has actually gotten better now, but the surrounding areas can be a hit or a miss if you’re going down unfamiliar roads

The AST’s seem to work for RWD and xDrive, while the H&R’s have separate part numbers. Maybe different spring rates. Thanks! Yeah they are popular
So far are you having any noises with this springs or any other type of issues ?
No issues/sounds on the AST’s

Yeah the Eibachs are great for a moderate drop while retaining a stock like comfort. You can DM _Luisvaz in Downingtown, PA and tell him I sent you.
@@sundeepm3 that's right. Im actually from Downingtown and now live 15 min from there. Is this handle on IG?
Oh nice and yes it is
Can i ask where you get your spacers from and what size are they, I love the look of your car
Thank you! I picked up a set off Bimmerpost, but the brand is Macht Schnell 15mm all around
I'm torn between either KW HAS or AST springs haha. So KW springs don't drop as low as AST springs do??
AST’s seem to drop slightly lower than the KW HAS. If you’re not really worried about adjusting heights, I would save the money and go AST

Great videos .,,keep up the good work 🦾🖤💯
Thank you!
Still really nice bro.
Appreciate it man!

Yeah a milder spacer option or different tire will prevent the rubbing from occurring in reverse full lock

on xdrive or regular drive? what distances do you have on your wheels?
I have RWD, with 15mm spacers and 19’s in front 20’s in the rear
mss hybrid kit is best, a bit pricey but super comfy without spending as much as coilovers
Nice I’ve heard mixed reviews about it but have seen it goes low
I thought you sold your car
Sold my old one last year, and bought another one earlier this year
The best part about a m3/4 is that the car is more than fine stock. Don’t rice it out. It’s not a civic
Agree some people do too much. I’ve been going for an OEM+ approach
