Can you guys please post pics of your setup if you are running AST, HR or KW. I don't need MSS.

Can you also please include the spacer size, and what MM setting you have your drop at if you know.

I only want to see installs out of the box, no modified setups. Meaning, no modified hacks to get you lower.

thanks so much <3

Entire thread is full of AST spring setups, including spacer sizes:

H&R springs with 13/10 spacers from BMS…

[Kev77]

KW HAS with 10/10 spacers, front is bottom out and rear has around 30-40% adjuster thread left, will probably raise the rear up by a tiny bit after it settles.

AST with MS 10/12 spacers. P Zero tires.

Your M4 looks great!
How do you like the H/R (sport?) springs? Is the ride harsh? Any noise? No rubbing? Seems like all you see around here are AST fixed springs. Apparently AST are suppose to ride more like stock.

Edit: I guess H&R doesn't yet have springs for AWD.

AST springs. They'd be perfect IMO if they went another .5" lower
Future Classic Spacers.
18MM front. 15MM rear.

Stock vs KW HAS mild drop:

KW HAS with 15MM rear coil spacer.
15MM front wheel spacer
12MM rear wheel spacer
Pzero tires (ugh)
No rubbing after front fender fins 4-5-6 shaved back 50% with an exacto knife.
Literally rides like stock at this height. I was lower before and it was "jarring" at times.

Looking sick!! So you decided to go with spring spacers instead of waiting for the new rear springs by kw? Or is this an old pic? I’m debating whether to get the new ones or just put the spacers. Having a hard time getting in contact with my dealer 😪

Thank you very much.

Yes, I used the KW coil spacer for now. Once KW told me anyone who has a kit from an authorized reseller will get the new taller rear spring for free; I didn't want to wait anymore. Frankly I might not even bother with the taller springs. It rides very good as it. I figured I would cross that bridge when the time comes and go from there.

Gotcha!! I’m probably gonna go the same route lol. Too much waiting and hassle. Have fun with the new stance.

I think you should. We get taller springs in a few months if we want them. But I am extremely happy with my ride quality. I can honestly say that out of all my prior KW HAS kits on E92, F82, F80, that this one rides the best! I have a 90 degree turn to get home that I have taken in all my past BMW with KW HAS. I have also hit that turn a million times in my past 4 911s. The G80 is the first BMW that takes it the best. Of course the 911's just railed it like nothing. But for a sedan, the G80 with the KW HAS, did a very good job at taking it without feeling like I am tipping over or screeching the tires to take it.

I suggest you get it ASAP! You will thank me later!

I can agree with you that the kw has rides very smooth. Almost good as stock and steady on corners and high speeds. I was just worried about the longevity of using spacers cuz once I put them on I don’t think I am willing to go in again to install the new kw springs. Once the spacers are in its in it for the long haul. But glad to hear that your ride is good with them on.

But dam you had a lot of crazy cars loll.

Truth be told, I might not even bother with the spring swap either. I will wait and see what others uncover with the new spring. What I have now is damn near perfect to me.

Yea... I have major car buying issues. I need help for it!

I left BMW in 2017 and did 4 911's! 17 991.2 911 S, 19 991.2 911 GTS, 992 911 S and a final 992 911 S. Sadly both of my 2020 911S were buybacks. Covid really screwed over Porsche quality. PDK blew on one of them, no parts to fix. The 2nd 2020 911 S had a odd clicking noise at low speed that drove me nuts. They took that one back too.

But I am so happy to be back in a BMW. BMW is the best bang for the buck car period in my opinion. Excellent handling and power. And nothing beats idrive IMO. Having 4 doors again is a VERY welcome change after 4 years in a 911.

I wish I had waited to buy a 911 until later in life. Its by far the best drivers car in the world IMO. But its not practical for an active dad with kids in club level sports, long road trips, pets and work. I should have saved all that money spent and just bought a GT3 RS in cash and made it a garage queen later in life.

Oh well. Live and learn. Im thankful for the time I had at Porsche. But I am so happy to be back in a BMW.

Lol!!

Thats a lot of 911s. I have issues with swapping out cars too. Nothing fancy as 911s but swapped out every 3 years on average throughout my driving life.
But yes the g80 is the bang for the buck car.

When will KW have the new HAS springs available for the xDrive?

Yea I was thinking the same thing.

[MMM.PWR]

So did KW just slap an xDrive sticker on their RWD springs? Because I know the box itself does say AWD.
