e90 suspension pic request!

Just wondering if anyone has any pics of an e90 lowered on stock wheels, preferable style 159s?

I've been considering dropping my xi with 159s on h&r sports and just wanted to see how it would look.

ANY SUSPENSION SETUP IS WELCOME, please just post some pictures!

Be careful as the ride of the car dropped on stock runflats will be terrible

Do you have perches by themselves? Or are you combining them with kw's?

I like it a lot, not overly harsh at all and probably the most reliable drop available for the xi

EDIT: I'm also not on runflats

KWv1 + run-flats does in fact equal a horrible ride. Good thing I never had to do this. My run-flats are sitting nice and tidy in my shed. Bagged and wrapped!!!

bump for this thread, very helpful.

So the best drop for the XI is either H&R'z or the KW v1, need to see more pix in order to make a decision.
