Is there anyway to get a Comp lowered and ride like a non comp?

BrntRubber · 03-14-2021, 04:56 PM

I am about to buy a 2018 m5 rather than a comp because I want a softer suspenion. The problem is I don't like the wheels so I will need to upgrade to the comp wheels.

IS there any way to lower the comp and make it ride like a non comp?

No. But the lowered ride is not bad. BTW it's an M5, not a Caddy.

Lower that bad boy and smile.

Many say the KW HAS springs do both (lower with compliant ride plus you can adjust them to their spongiest setting) but I have no firsthand experience.

I just lowered my M8 GC Comp on KW HAS and it seems to ride smoother than stock

Same car: wish I could say the same of the H&R setup—I can't; my chiropractor is on a retainer... 'nuff said.

I just did the same and agree. The car is smoother with the KW versus the comp.

I am debating between M550iX springs, KW HAS or MSS adjustable springs. Comfort and no wheel gap are the two main goals.
