Hello was just trying to find out how low can I go with lowering my Z3

It has 18" wheels on and wanted to go down by 35-40 mills.

would this be ok? will the wheels have a good clearance on height and on turning?

Thank you. :rolleyes:

Hi,

Had a broken spring on mine so decided to replace all and lower at the same time.

Used a set of Apex springs with 35mm lowering.

Worked well, doesn't look much different at the from but has dropped the back nicely.

There's no problems with clearance, we've just come back from France fully loaded with an rear luggage rack and there's no problems with the wheel clearance.

Had a few problems with speed humps tho :)
