Lets see some pics of your drop!

Im looking for pics specifically of an msport 35i on H&Rs and Eibachs, but if you have pics of your drop please feel free to post it up.

Also, along with your pics please post what you are dropped on and how much it dropped you.

Thanks!

Here is a picture of a non m-sport 3.5i that we built with the H&R drop. To clarify, it doesn't matter which Z4 model you have - the end result will be the same on all after putting springs in.

The H&R is the best drop for the Z4 by far, the Eibachs leaves a pretty big gap in the rear still. Glad I switched to KW V3 on my own Z4 now.

Thanks lewis, is that on 19s or 20s? Looks like 20s.

The reason im asking, is i keep seeing the drop specs for the H&Rs to be .2 for sport pkg.

Im not spending over 300 just to drop it .2 lol id rather spend more and get coils and SLAM it.

That is a 3.5i w/ Sport Package on 20s. Like I said, it doesn't matter which Z4 you have and what package - the end drop will be the same.

If budget permits, I would recommend going with coilovers not for the flexibility in height adjustments - but it makes a world of difference on the handling. Steering becomes more responsive, high speed cornering is a lot more stable and also it absorb the shocks on the road a lot better from the improved rebound on the coils.

KWV1 would be an option I would consider.

Yeah i understand that it ends in the same drop for diff models.

What i was saying is if its only .2 then its not worth it. It must be low already with SP.
