    whats this "we"?

          Are those the 1.5"s or 1.3"s? and do you think the drop on my 318is will be similar? or probably more reverse rake, which would suck.

            1.3 I think. It has a nice even drop

                  Just ordered the 1.5 318is kit for my cabrio, I hope it drops a significant amount (I'll be also running the E90 top hats). Stay tuned.

                      Looks great! remove the rear spring pads and it should level it out

                          Part of your problem may be that since the springs are designed for a 318is and you have a 325 the extra weight of the i6 is making it rake forward more than usual

                            In all cases, rear springs take longer to settle, the drop in the back will be more apparent after a week.
                            Also, the car seems to be on uneven ground, making false impression on the drop.

                                Well I took that picture on the first day. They have settled a little more but do you think removing the spring pads would help even it out?
