I am in need of some help. I recently lowered my M45 with Eibach springs and now the headlights are aimed too low. I have tried to adjust the cog dial counter clockwise and it has helped some but it seems as though I have reached the limit of the adjustment itself.

If I an driving next to a construction barrier, my driver's side headlight is angled downward about 10-15 degrees. Passenger side, 5 degrees at most.

I have been noticing that Acura's and Lexus are parallel to the ground with no angles at all.

The beam is pretty bad. To the point where if a car is about 10-15 feet ahead of me, the top of my cutoff just catches the middle of the rear tires. The side of the beams do not extend to the side of the road as much as it should. I noticed this before I was lowered.

Anyone have any suggestions? Should I take her to the dealer to see if they can make some adjustments? Do you think they will charge or will this be warrantied even though I am lowered?

Please help! I have searched the forums and have not found anyone else sharing a similar problem.

I have on m35x stick and always feel like the headlights sit very low as well. On a backroad I can barely see 4-5 car lengths in front of me, I just assumed that is how our car is made.
