I just had them installed oh about 3 hours ago. However I did notice the same thing that the front appears to be a little high. I found another post by you shayan to find out if you are on the stock wheels still and according to that you are. I have the stock wheels as well and no spacers. I am assuming the fronts will settle a little more but I wonder if it is bit of an illusion due to the offsets and how far in the stock wheels are inside the fender?

In any case I should be swapping out the wheels this weekend with new rubber so hopefully when all is said and done it will look good. I have seen other cars with Dinan on this forum with proper aftermarket wheel setup or OE+spacers and the drop looks fantastic to me.

Totally happy with Dinan though! Ride quality is great and perfect amount of drop IMO.

After a lot of pain an misery (hehe ok it's not that bad), which it seems everyone goes through with these cars, I think I have settled on the VMR 703's for now.

I was getting worried with the drop the more I looked at it. I was checking part numbers and my original order, the box they came in, see if maybe I was sent the incorrect springs (RWD) which has a larger drop in the rears. Everything checked out fine though and even some of the other BMW series with Dinan and xDrive have a similar looking stance.

I found this post here and this seems almost identical to mine which put my mind at ease.
