Ast bmw g87/g80/g82 adjustable lowering springs
https://x-ph.com/ast-bmw-g87-m2-g80-...howHidden=true
Hello, it looks like this is a relatively new product release in 6/2023. I had KW HAS on my G80 and am looking to adjustable lowering springs for G82 that will be here soon. I was wondering if anyone had experience with these, and if they are comparable to KW. Thank you |

Correct. Front has the most noticeable gap in stock form. Most people looking to lower their cars are going 0.75 or more in front, and even things up in the rear - especially on G80, where it does not need as much drop as the G82.

We typically don't bottom out the settings to prevent these types of issues, just enough to close the gap and present a nice, sporty drop - typically a 1-2 finger fender gap. Not everyone wants their car slammed to the ground. The adjustability on the spring perches allows the luxury of fine tuning for a majority of different circumstances, such as steep driveways, making clearance for aggressive front lips or steep parking garages, preventing changing suspension down the road when tastes change (like new wheel/tire setups).

Currently have these on my M4
Couple of highlights are they ride really good and a tad bit stiffer but in a good way. It’s like having a sport plus plus mode. Sport rides like sport plus and comfort now rides like sport. Now full transparency my M4 only has 1300 miles. I also like the adjustable tool better then the kw and the best part is the AST’s have a ruber flat ring on top of the rear perch to prevent spinning when adjusting the rear. So you can adjust the rear without having to disassemble the rear suspension all over again. |

Has anyone had noise issues from the rear springs binding? Currently battling this on a 2024 M3 xDrive.
