I did see a monkey that day, i have no idea what he was doing in a field of sheep but i definitely seen him, his tail gave it away, probably a trained pet but still unusual to see one with a sheep!

BTW - Pics Chaos posted have not had the true colour brought out in them yet so if you want true colour version of a pic post file name.

HOw Low?

30mm? It looks lower than that.

Ive got a 320i 4 door with the same reps, so im trying to decide how much to lower it by.

Because his is a tourer does this make it different to a saloon in any way?
(to achieve the same look)

I was thinking of 40mm all around.

Yep, thats my baby :cool: Dropped 30mm all round, BUT as mines got aircon its sitting a bit lower again at the front as the springs are probably meant for a non-aircon equipped car.

Cheers

Steve

BTW, just read that members cars link Simon, its a little bit out of date methinks, need to get that sorted!!!

Cool

So air con uses up alot of weight??

Ive got air con too :o

I was thinkin 40mm but if the air con is gonna affect it i should keep it safe.....

Yeah, air-con is quite a heavy bit of kit you'll probably have a hell of a job finding lowered springs that are designed for an aircon equipped car. Both Chris and mine's tourings had a similar ride height despite the difference in the amounts the springs lowered the car by. As Chris said, don't got lower than 40mm, keep it between 30-40mm and it should be fine.

Cheers
Steve
