HRE Wheels Arrived

New Black HRE's finally arrived and got fitted today. I'm thinking the next stage is to lower. Any advice on the best route forward? I've been recommended.

Suspension Kit, coil springs / shock absorbers
BILSTEIN - B16 Damptronic
Gas Pressure, Conditions see certificates, for vehicles with electronic suspension control, For vehicles with PASM
Fitting Position Front Axle, Lowering 15-35 mm
Fitting Position Rear Axle, Lowering 15-35 mm

Suspension Kit, coil springs / shock absorbers
BILSTEIN - B16 Damptronic
Gas Pressure, for vehicles with electronic suspension control, For vehicles with PASM, Conditions see certificates, Mod. Komfort
Fitting Position Front Axle, Lowering 25-35 mm


Interested to hear if anyone has any first hand experience of this route?

Looks great! Go with the Damptronics if the car is mostly street driving.

Is it me or do the wheels from the 3/4 side shot seem to stick out from the rear fender?

I think the offset is perfect once the "new" suspension is in place. It should tuck in and set just right. "?"
