For anyone interested, Black Friday sale is live on Dinan website. They're being a bit cheeky and listing a 20% discount, but the original price was only 10% higher than it is on sale for now. |

Since I don't have the sport suspension, the car was very soft before. It feels more direct and less wallowy now, while still retaining comfort. The car seems to settle a bit quicker over bumps. I am however glad I didn't go for the Eibachs, I think I would have found those too stiff paired with my 20s. Most importantly, it got rid of the 4x4 look. Some quick before (clean) and after (dirty) pics below. |

Nope, still very happy with Dinan. I wouldn't want to sacrifice any more ride comfort. The car feels a bit sharper and less boaty now, but it's still a comfortable highway cruiser (as it should be). Also, I suspect that if I'd gone with Eibach I wouldn't be able to upsize my sidewalls in the future without potentially rubbing. It already looks good, it's not slammed by any means, but I think it'll look even better when I go up from 35F/30R to 40F/35R. Not mentioning the fact that I can still easily clear driveways/speed bumps. Go for it, you won't regret it.

I'm in Europe and prefer to order directly from BMW to avoid shipping, customs tax etc from US. Thanks |

I did not. I meant to ask the installer to take a pic of them, but in my excitement of dropping the car off completely forgot. Apologies
