I have 30mm spacers, I haven't installed my HAS yet but I've been skeptical. I've seen the pics w the 15mm spacer, but like I said I have 30mm. Do you guys think running the 30mm I can achieve stock ride height? I live in Illinois so the roads are ehhh. I also have an xDrive is there a difference when the KW is thrown on? I want the drop to be a little more on my car, like the absolute smallest amount and that begs the question why did you even buy the KW. But like I said before it's to drop the car a little lower than stock.

Where did you order the spacers from? I'm thinking I might order a pair of the 15mm just to have some options when I go to install mine. I want my car low but I definitely don't want to be dragging ass. 1.5 finger gap front and rear would be ideal.

I ordered the 15mm from KW NA, and the 30mm from ECS. I'll likely list the 30mm for sale soon as I never installed them. I do still think the KW is the better purchase, just due to the quality and flexibility. The fronts have A LOT of adjustment out of the box. Now with a spacer on the rear, I now have the same amount to play with in the rear. |

Just got a few sets of the KW spring spacers in stock - these will be a normal stocking item if needed.

AST would be the best option if looking for a fixed drop spring, or spend a little more and get the height adjustment option with the KW HAS. We're getting more ASTs in the next week, been sold out for a short while now.

That looks like a perfect drop. But if too stiff, sounds like KW HAS with maybe the additional adjusters in the rear is the best/only option right now.
If a person wanted to do just the fronts to balance things out, what is the best option? |

If you want to be able to balance the height, your options are either KW HAS or MSS since they are adjustable.

Just had my KW kit installed (no spring spacers.) The rear looks a little low but I don't have wheel spacers so it's hard to tell. Once I put my BC Forged wheels on later in the week I'll have a better sense of any changes that I need to make.
I feel like I'll want to add the 15mm spacers to better match the front gap, which should give me a "functional low" look, similar to the BIGW0RM's old F80, but we'll see how everything looks once I have proper fitting wheels. I do find the ride quality good. Comfort is a little firmer now, maybe like 75% of OEM Sport. |
