Re: Advice needed on lowering
Hi R335,
I am not an expert on suspension nor do I drive a 335, but I am also a "ai p ai qi" robot and I have thought of this question for a long time. I think if you want to lower your car and yet does not end up with something that compromise / handles worse than your msports suspension, go for a good set of coilovers.....just my 2cents.

Re: Advice needed on lowering
once you changed to coilovers, you will lose a bit of comfort but some of them has a good trade off between performance and comfort. I was thinking along the same line as you when i thought the m-sports suspension is too soft (too floaty to my taste).
From my extensive research a yr ago, the best ones (and not too overkill) are the AST Suspension + Swift Springs and the set of Moton that i have. I believe that there are still a number on the AST setup so you can try looking for them to have a ride in. If you wish to test the Moton, i can try arranging for you (but no promises).
Since you have rolled your fenders, there should not be any issue of rubbing.
