Lowering Options for the F02

[TheBlackGT]

Hey guys,

I'm looking at moving up to a F02 soon, and needed advice from you guys.

I'm interested in lowering the car, and the H&R SuperSport Springs give a great drop, but there is still a little gap. I've been seeing pics of 7ers all over the Internet and they have really nice drops, I've posted a few pics below, can anyone tell me what they're running on? I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

Looks photoshopped to me. Those are promo poster to sell Rims.

The rim makers probably altered those photos so the rims looks that much better.

Unless they are on air bag suspension??

Not airbags, and they're not photoshopped. I've seen videos of some of these lowered rides.

Maybe coilovers?

Most likely Coilovers. KW does make a full line of their V1,V2 and V3 coilovers for the F01. The fitment would be the same on the F02 however the dampening and spring rates might not be ideal for the longer wheel base model.

Drop range on them is 1-2.2 inches in the front and 0.8-2 inches in the rear. They are a pretty inflexible application though as they only work for the 2WD 740i or 750i without SLS/Air suspension and without Adaptive drive.

Shoot me a PM if you need any extra information.

If you want to know exactly what ADV was running on those cars, you can always shoot them a message too.
