Lowering in Cincinnati/SW Ohio

New F10 535i owner here but figured I'd post this here as well as It seem there are more members here in my area than on the F10 board.

Does anyone have any recommendations on shops to have lowering springs installed at in the SW Ohio/Cincinnati Area? Called around to a few places and they have quoted $800+ for the install.

Turn In Concepts, they have extensive BMW experience and are hands down the best shop in the area. Ask for Kent or Tony Tell them Jon with the X1 sent you.

3002 Harris Ave is their address.

No way, not for performance work. They put making a buck above all else.

They wanted $150 to clear a code. Not going to get into the other stories about them here but regardless of your experience they will be the most expensive quote the OP is looking for so it's a non-issue.

OP, take your car to a performance shop - not a detailer that doubles as a dealership.

Yes I can see that Turn-In-Concepts could be a much better shop for certain types of work especially serious mods. Thanks for mentioning them. I just wanted to point out that I have had good experiences with EAG installing my bilsteins and doing an alignment, think total bill was around $400. Also have had good experience with routine maintenance work. But will definitely check TIC out for any serious work.

To OP - let us know your various quotes for the spring install and then how it goes.
