OK I finally have the funds to upgrade the suspention on my E30 325i Touring. I am looking at lowering the ride hight at the same time.

Most kits will lower the car 20-30mm but I want to go lower I have seen a Spax kit that will take it down 50mm does anyone know if I will have problems with wheel clearance (standard X spoke wheels 205 tyres)
or uneaven tyre wear, suspention geometry changes.

Cheers

Paul

Thanks Peter I have sent Andrew an e-mail direct, although his set up might be a little different as his racing his M5 and I just want to stiffen and lower mine as after the TVR the BMW just wants to roll on corners.

As for the E numbers I get lost as well its only that I have owed two E30 models for approx 9 years that I know what they are. The E30 is an easy one to remember as its the original M3 with the bubble arches think the square one.
