Lowering E60

Re: Lowering E60

Moral of this thread is ask the right people for the right mods and right objectives.

Ask a hardcore person, he will say "BUY". Ask a salesman, he will say "BUY". Ask a layman who acts like he is hardcore, he will say "Could be good, BUY"

Ask me and I will say "Buy lor, you happy can liao"

Heng I don't fall into any of the categories. Sharing what I have experienced and still experiencing with the various products.

The worst are those layman who hear/say than given advise than get 'bro/sis' to attest to get support, getting popular for the wrong reasons.

Err, I m not sure abt tat brand Ruff but Eibach Pro Kit is quite popular n claims to work well with stock suspensions. Mine still working well n comfy n sporty but long term effects I don't know yet. Aiyah if dun track then I feel no need sibeh solid handling lah. Sg roads quite solid one. But if u twist n turn in bed thinking of getting good shocks then go for it lor. As for me I dun track but got Brembos eventually cos I got into 4 near accidents n stock brakes almost failed me. Also I vain. Hurhur

With your upgraded springs, unless spirited driving is only involved occasionally in which I'm sure the tendency is there, then still not so bad.

If you do it too often, theres so much stock shocks can take it. Next, you'll twist & turn on the bed thinking what shocks should you buy to replace.

Then similar questions will surface, is it too stiff, too bumpy, will it bua when clearing humps, got vibration or not, I want to lower abit but car must look hiong & comfy...Yawnz...

Hey MW, so which springs is good? Seems like most people go for H&R. Haven't seen any Eibach for e60.

I'm sure alot of guys now considering springs now that you say it til like this. Ok lor BUY LA!!!

Anyway, if you dont mind, can take pic to show your ride lower by how much? What I can't stand is the gap between the fender and tyres. It would defintely look slammed when lowered but how much would it drop?

No lah bro,

Intend to change my ride in 2 - 2.5 yrs so by then if shocks almost wear out also ok lah. Bernard told me can get Eibach springs or somethng like that.... without the need to change shock and can lower by 30mm. But I told him 20mm ok liao.... Hopefully its an ok brand lar.... your opinion?

Bro,

Nice miting you again yesterday.... coming Sat another one... will start a thread soon.... hope to see you there.

Anyway, if you are going for springs let me know.... can do together mah. But I think you have to check if you need to change the stock shocks too. According to Bernard of BVO, he told me can lower by 30mm max. Do you think it will translate to 30mm narrowing of the unsightly gap that we feel unhappy abt?

Sat again Sure thing! But think Gilman village got parking charges liao. Out of the blue came the uncle to collect kopi money. Where next or still there?

I think will probably go for springs la, the gap really unsightly. Feels irritated at times when I see it. I don't track and more into aesthetics so guess springs are good enuff for me. Now need to check w 715. He still undecided but I believe he will come to conclusion after awhile.

Think 30mm might be right. I hope the camber not really affected otherwise got implications. Not in a rush so let me know k.

Yup, no more Gillman for a while.... Sourcing for new place.....I reckon pay for parking ok lah..but sometimes change place for new thrill....anyway $1.5 or $2 for the afternoon ok lah.

If your offset is not too much, should avoid camber bah....

I can only do it earliest Sept 10.... during the Comex.... as I will be driving one of my company's vans or small lorry for 4 days to get easy parking at SUNTEC loading bay. But like you, no hurry... has lived with it for nearly 2mths liao.... even 2 more mths also can wait..... not internal injury mah
