Springs and warranty
All,
I know that this topic has been covered several times but I am curious if anyone has any real world experience with a warranty claim being denied by a dealer due to lowering springs. I would like to install some eibachs to go with the wheels i just purchased but I don't want any warranty hassle. I live in San Diego and my service advisor is cool (Brad @ San Diego) but I would rather drive the car stock then deal with any nonsense warranty wise. I am all over the place with this car and I have HREs and springs on the floor of my office, but I can't decide what to do with them... Lastly, anyone gone with 21" wheels and not lowered? Thanks again, Tom |

Had springs on all my cars (2x F10's), no issues with warranty, as long as I wasn't claiming issues from the struts. I did however have my control arms on my 2011 550xi replaced, and I was on springs. <3 my dealer.

Yep. 21's and not lowered. I'd like to, but just not worth the hassle of reduced front ground clearance since the M is my daily. And really... the front wheel gap doesn't look bad when the car is in motion. It's just when it's sitting still does it look too high in the front.
