ACS springs on my F80

Awesome. The drop really is perfect and doesn't have that raked look like the Eibach's.

+1 someone please define "float".

Thanks, they've fully settled now and looks totally different to the just installed pics. I'm so pleased with the drop its perfect and still allows the car to perform its daily duties, speed bumps and car park ramps etc.

Highly reccomend the Schnitzer springs

I've had these springs for almost 6 months now and absolutely love them. No comfort/ride difference from OEM and with all the speed bumps around here, I think the drop is perfect.

Airpower have you got spacers on with yours?? I haven't so far cause I live on rural farm roads and keeping the sides of the car clean is tricky enough...

Yes I put BMS spacers on 15mm front and 12mm back, flushed the wheels right up and looks fantastic. I originally ordered Renn Motor Sport ones but those made the car vibrate like a mofo at higher speeds. The BMS ones are rock solid.

I live in rural country as well in southern Limburg, haven't had any noticeable "extra" crap on the fenders. 12mm in the back is not a lot.

Here are pics of what the drop looks like

Nice pics. Glad to hear positive remarks on these. Apologies if I missed it but what's the spring rates?

Afraid I can't help out with Spring rates.

The car has settled absolutely perfect for what I wanted. It's lowered without looking slammed and remains fully useable day to day!

Looks perfect! I actually contacted ACS headquarters and they denied giving spring rates out for fear of somebody copying their design. Their words, not mine. He said they made them to ride with comfort and handling, but would just be nice to know the rates and how they are balanced. Oh well, they have a great track record so I'm sure it's good.
