Another thing is when the rear breaks loose it's so much more predictable. I really love that. Never any hop now.

Plus Dinan caught my eye with their listing of the suspension that specifically states its compatibility with 20x10 and 20x11 wheels (coincidentally the precise size of the Dinan wheels). |

Final suspension mods will be the dinan links for the rear and front monoball system for front. This will give even more road feel and tightness . Just much more enjoyable when it's that solid and connected.

Supposedly they are also working on swaybars, but that his been in development so long I think they might have dropped it. Shame too as their swaybars on the f10 really helped things. |

Thanks!
Thanks! Too busy selling M's to get that into it lol. All kidding aside I really wish I had the time for that. I will have better and more detailed pics on soon though.

Alignment issue Now
Update: Had some issues after they did the alignment. The first time the tech did something wrong, the steering wheel was crooked to the right like 10 degrees or so which is very frustrating and the car just felt very wrong and unstable. Had him do it again to dinan alignment specs and center the steering again and now it's just about back to how it was. Still off center about 2 degrees but not quite as sharp as it was before any alignment. I'm confused, it was PERFECT before any alignment at all, any thoughts? Thx

How easy is it to change the height? I do my own swapping of summer tires for winter tires, and vice versa. If I could raise the suspension up 1/2" or so when I put my winter wheels/tires on, then lower it down an inch or so when I put the Summer wheel/tires back on, that would be awesome. Looks like it's pretty simple, just wanted to make sure you don't have to get an alignment done every time you change the height. Looks like there are holes in the adjustment collar to insert a screwdriver, or something to use as a lever to rotate it (after the collar lock nuts have been loosened). Just wondering if it's really that easy?

I finally got the suspension just perfect again! Raised the front and the rear and it's perfectly level, about 4mm rear and 8mm front and added one set of the packers (5mm packer/bump stop spacer) to the front shocks only to make it feel like it did when it was really low without it having to actually be really low, it helped to perfect compression on the fronts. Amazing suspension, super sharp steering response is back and very flat handling and once again like I said the car is more comfortable than when it was stock. It's just back to being perfect in every way and compression and rebound are just right. Also changed spacers to 12mm all around vs the 10's. Lowering made them tucked in again.

I installed this suspension a week or so ago and have to echo the OP and other feedback. The car feels more planted and responsive. The turn in feels sharper and quicker.
Adjusting height is easy. It comes with a tool that inserts into the holes on the collar and I found that easier than traditional wrenches used on coil overs I've had in the past. Nothing but good things to say about the kit so far. Can def drop is real low too if you want. I have it set at the Dinan recommended height for now. |
