I know this has been talked about before but i'm trying to find actual feed back from owners that have lowering s springs installled

I have a 2012 M37x model. my wheel gap yes, it's massive with the factory 18 wheels but the ride quality is not bad at all. with that said. Who here has lowering springs installed in their AWD model and what is your input on ride quality and comfort? also what brand do you have?

Eibach prokit
Tanabe NF210

Those look to be the only options available for the AWD model but do they really work as intended for the X model and not the Sport model since everything is made for the S?

My plan is to get the factory 20" gunmetal wheels and 20mm spacers all around. that seems to be the best fit for those wheels

what do you guys recommend me to go with?

Thanks in advance

I ran Eibachs on my M37x for several years with no issues. Ride is good; the spring rate is higher than OEM but not so much to be very noticeable cruising. Turns and curves however handle much better. It felt sportier the way I think a sport model should feel from the factory. I switched up to coilovers to drop even more and I like to drive (assertively) to say the least. You'll notice a big difference when you switch to 20 inch wheels. 18s are too small for this big heavy car and that 50 series side wall is squishy. 40 series on the 20s is much better IMHO.

I have purchased the RS-R springs for my 2013 M37x, but haven't installed them yet. Will certainly give some feedback once I get them on.

Hello. I'm about to order the RS-R "Down" Springs for my Q70L AWD . Do you have any feedback on these? Thanks

I have BC BRs. Initially Lowered about 2.75” it handled amazing and looked even better but the camber on front couldn’t be corrected. Now riding at 2”, camber is still not good but livable. Anyone know who makes UCA’s for the Q70 please let me know.
