    So how do feel about the ride quality of the Vogtlands after a few days?
    Bone jarring compared to the original springs, or okay?

    Also the Vogtlands look like they've dropped it quite a bit. About 2 inches (50mm) in the front if I'm guessing right.
    I was looking at not much more than 1.5 inches (35-40mm) for mine.

    It certainly looks kewl, but probably a bit too low for my driveway!

    Ride really isn't that bad and the more I drive it the more I like it. I think the advertised drop on these is 45mm, but then when you add in the 6mm from the spring pads you end up with 51mm or right at 2". I need to measure mine again but I think it came down closer to 2.25" in the front.

    This was the exact look I wanted, tucking the rear barely and no gap on the front. If you want 1.5" then you should probably go with the Sachs Kit, if you want some Vogtlands get with
    PMLMotorsports he can hook you up.

    Your car looks Great!! Love the wheels and the way it looks. Maybe a tad too low for me but it sure looks fine?

    Man, thats sweet looking E34...

    Choice colour too!!

    How much lower is the front than standard?? Did you upgrade th shocks too?? As mine has a nasty habit of slamming the bumpstops... The front isn't even as low as yours, although the back of mine is lower.

    Gone but NEVER forgotten. :'(

    And then...

    Did some measurments today, looks like the front went down 2-3/8" and the rear when 1-1/2". Left the stock shocks on there.

    For comparison sake, my fronts measure 24.75" and rears are 24.5" from the ground to the fender arch across the center of the wheel.
