Headlight adjustment after lowering your M5?

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
I was wondering, did you guys have to adjust your headlights manually after lowering your F90? Or do they adjust automatically to the correct position based on the height of the car?

Thank you for any info!

I didn't adjust mine, so I don't have a good answer for you. One thing I wish that could be adjusted are the damn sensors... They activate a little more often after lowering.

I've read on here before that it isn't necessary since the headlights do their self leveling process every time you start the car which isn't affected by suspension changes.

Awesome, thank you for the info.


I marked where my headlights shine from 3 different distances in my garage. Will see how it will compare after lowering lol
