    I lowered my 'vert a bit

    My goal was to retain a usable ride height but fix the reverse rake, I'm very pleased with the outcome.

    On a side note: those damn OEM springs take for-freakin'-ever to compress and remove, damn

    Thanks for looking

    Love the look, I want to do the same thing, can I get details on the setup? How close is your oil pan to the street? How is the ride?? Looks nice, I to considered those wheels, but missed the chance.

        So I guess I am your older brother. Did you install drop hats? They work great for reverse rake.



        Would be nice in white. I am going to put them on my IX.

          Love the white rims!

          All I did was inatall h&r lowing spring and took out the spring pads. As far as I know the back is stock. Not sure if the PO did anything back there, I liked the stance so didnt bother with anything.

          Haven't checked the oil pan and haven't driven it much since installing yesterday, but my short drive had no issues with the speed bumps in the area and ride still seems smooth.

            These wheels in white on an e30 looks really good.

            I would run h&r springs, pads and bilsteins all around with drop hats. You will be the same. The car will hand good. Its looks to be the same ride height you have now.
