    I know its not my eyes playing tricks on me with the fender gap differences. It just needs new shocks and springs. There is no rake from back to front as you would see on a late 90s 7 series. The e34s never had that much but its just as if I had two 100 lb sand bags in the boot.

    Thanks for the input and I'll try and stay away from BK and the Golden Arches and do some leg lifts.

    Ross,

    Having 17in wheels doesn't help either. Look into M-tech springs and some new shocks.

    Brandon,

    I've got the 15" snows on and its still noticeable. I plainly need to swap out the suspension for the Sachs kit. And we still need to do dinner with the ladies. Let me know what's good for you these next couple a weeks...

    My shocks are a bit worn and the rear end actually sags to one side slightly... Check out my userpic to see the squat under hard acceleration.

    Default AND your steering wheels on the wrong side,

    I think you have other problems besides too much "junk in the trunk"

    Just kidding...lol
