my '04 with 96k and Lovells 25/30 drop. . . I was supposed to receive the 340/350 drop but got the lower springs by mistake. Other mods include 05 hood and rear bumper (hood no pictured), Mavman spoiler, and full JBA exhaust.

Just my opinion but it looked better with the enkei wheels compared to the BBS. But to each is own. Hell... I love stock 18's

A dropped goat looks awesome but there is no way in Hell I would drop my goat and mine is not even a DD. Hitting every bump and shaking your kidneys, taking ramps sideways, worrying about speed bumps. I had mine with a halfway decent lowering, as soon as I hit the first big speed bump scraping headers she got raised.

^^ what he said! i'd love to drop mine, but i scrape the chin enough just getting in and out of my driveway! think i should try one of those cheapy splitters to stop that, or do yall think it would just tear it off.. i hate the damn scratches!!
and i agree that 531's looked better on the enkei's :)
I received the Lovells 25/30 drop, which equates to about 1.25 inches. Its low, and honestly I had ordered the 3/4 drop.

I rarely scrape on anything. Driveways are, for the most part, a non issue. Speed bumps cause no problems either (except the HUGE 5 mph ones). I take 15 MPH speed bumps at 15 MPH and its very smooth, no scrape. I enter the driveway slow at about 5 MPH and its fine.

Really its not terrible to be low. . . you just have to drive within the rules of the road.

That being said, I am very likely swapping to what I had originally ordered (3/4 drop kit), I'm still deciding. . . its a tough decision.

I think personally I just don't like the look of the older style BMW wheels. On your QSM though they don't look too bad. I think the lip helps.

it's an MGW-P, i love it!
it's in the lowest position, i had it about an inch higher and wanted it lower in the 1-3-5 positions, so i dropped it down. i rest my hand on the e-brake handle when cruising and i can shift 2-4-6 and two of my fingers never leave the e-brake :)
