That rear doesn't look like its as low as it will go, look at rear, you can only just see the top of the rear wheel.jon_v8 wrote:I have these springs on my avant running 20's with 265 30 20, the rears are as low as they will go and the fronts adjusted to suit, it's a bit of a pig of a job to fit them I left it to my local specialist as the drc with has to be recharged or my local specialist did it with the drc still attached.

You don't need to recharge the DRC when fitting as it can be done without disconnecting but it is recommended to check and adjust the pressure if lowering.
Don't forget to get a 4 wheel alignment done afterwards. Mine was wearing away the inside edge of the tyres due to the high camber . A set of adjustable top arms sorted that out.
I originally had a set of 265 tyres on but they obviously have a higher profile and are wider than the 255 so will theoretically ride better (I couldn't tell a difference) by also raise the car slightly. And have more clearance issues. I had to dial in a bit more rear camber to get some clearance on the rear but after switching to 255s I set the rear camber back to normal.
Re: deals on KW springs?
That's what I said?? , that they can be done without discharging the drc, as mine were☝ the rears are wound as low as they'll go, bearing in mind mines an avant they are different part numbers to the saloon so may not go as low? Not a clue but I know for a fact it's at its lowest, the front still has more to come down. I have no issues with 5 in the car with any chaffage what so ever, clearance is not an issue and 265 30 20 keep the same rolling radius as the 255 35 19's.
Re: deals on KW springs?
Jon, are you running standard front suspension arms? Any wear issues on the front tyres yet?

Re: deals on KW springs?
Yes mate, no I've not noticed any yet, two of my other mates have the same set up and they've had no issues either.maars wrote:Jon, are you running standard front suspension arms? Any wear issues on the front tyres yet?
