Konis and XI

cyphr · 02-01-2009, 09:59 PM

Just got an e-mail from the guys over at TCKline regarding running their shocks on the xi. The rear fits since the 335i rear suspension is identical to the xi. However, the reps at TCKline informed me that they have adapters that should work on the xi to allow us to run the front shocks.

Has anyone had experience with the adapters? And do they fit?

I wonder if an adapter actually exists out there. I'm leaning towards no; because Dinan was unable to offer a front damper for the xi with its suspension packages which include Koni dampers.

question for you, I was looking at your car specs, and I see H&R spacers, why do you put spacer??
Is it for the rear wheels? is it only for looks? Does it look similar to the M model.
Thanks

i put 12 mm spacers on the rear only - did it strictly for looks.
helps fill out the wells for a slightly more aggresive look.

You can shoot TCKline an e-mail, they're usually pretty prompt about replying: feedback@tcklineracing.com
