Reply With QuoteI had the same huge gap and I bought the Eibach Lowering springs and it gave it the perfect look. Now it handles and rides a whole lot better. They lower the car about 1 3/4 incehs in the front and about 1 inch in the back.
lowering my 530i
I finally got my car running again after 8 months of clutch/flywheel/transmission problems. I just recently bought some 5 spoke 3 piece Dinan wheels. I am not sure what the model is called but I have had a couple of people ask me to buy it. I will try to take some pictures later on. They are 17x9 all around with 245/40R17 tires. I was wondering how much I should lower the front to eliminate the gap between the front wheel well and tire. The car looks like its freaking lifted or has no motor.
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.

To make car look normal the gap should not be bigger than your sidewall. As for the spring... that's a whole another topic that has been beaten to death.
