MSS Adjustable Springs - Set Up
Hello,
I installed the MSS springs on my 2018 M2 last weekend and was wondering how many of you with the same suspension adhered to the front being 5mm lower than the rear as a "must do" in the instructions? My goal for the MSS springs was to improve ride quality and keep my car at the stock ride height which was 623mm front and 616mm rear. In order to follow the 5mm rake "must do", I ended up with 616mm in the front and 621mm in the rear. I really would like it to be more like the stock set up but didn't want to go against the install instructions. Seems strange to me to say the kit allows you to set your car at stock height but the instructions contradict your ability to do that. What do you guys think of this "must do" requirement? By the way, I emailed MSS with the same question and they regurgitated their install instruction requirement of a 5mm rake. One last question, when you lower your car on the stock shocks with a kit like MSS are you taking away piston travel from the suspension? Thanks in advance for your help!!

But yes, if you lower the car on stock shocks you will reduce compression piston travel. |
