How low can you go?

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
None

Item Interest
I had to have my Z4MC towed last week and the flatbed truck rubbed the lower portion of the spoiler trying to get the car on the truck. He also rubbed the rear mufflers ever so slightly.eeded I cant imagine lowering the front another inch with the Mstache. I have been wondering about installing air shocks to I could raise and lower the car when needed. Any opinions on that?

I'm willing to bet without a doubt that it is, yes lol. No one in their right mind would spend less than a few thousand $ on a GT3 for a system like that.

looks like about $3500 for just the lifting part if you already have KW's, complete system possibly around $7-8K. That sound about right? Yikes

dubseed, yours is about the lowest Z4 I've seen... Have you experienced problems like these? What is your ride height (floor to top of wheel arch) front and rear?
