Anybody using ST Coilovers on their xdrives and have pictures? I’m about to buy a set, but worried that the rear won’t be high enough for my liking, even at max height. I live in a place that gets very little snow and we don’t salt, so I’m not worried about them rusting

I'm also looking for coilovers for my 2015 428i xdrive and would be interested Im knowing about this also, didn't know ST made coils for the xdrive

@Deadserial, can you post a link? Thanks

Sure thing! I’m told they’re built to order and 4-6 weeks out.

I inquired about xdrive coils from them about 2 months ago and they said they didn't have any. Went with KW V1s instead for xdrive and have been happy with them. Though I think I would have preferred a stiffer front spring rate but it'll do for now.

Any pictures of your setup?

I posted them in the f31 thread a while back

Sometimes I really wish I got an f31, that looks good. How much room did you have to go up on yours?

I'm maxed out on the rears as far as how high they'll go. I need to order a spacer that KW makes to give me some adjustments in the rears. Fronts still have a good amount of thread left to go up more if I want. I like my ride height right now so I'm debating putting more work into them.

just a PSA but KW does have a rebate form currently for V1-V3

perfect, I was thinking I needed to install the spacer as well. 1.2" in the rear is a little lower than Id like to go I think. Thank you for the info!

yeah I saw that, although the ST coilovers can be had for $890 right now which is a V1 without stainless parts which I don't need here. I wish they had a rebate on the street comforts because those are what I really want. Just a little pricey.

Well guys, I placed an order for the ST X Coilovers for my 2015 428i xdrive, hopefully I get them installed in the next two weeks then will post pics once my new summer set gets in.

Yeah keep in mind I also have a wagon so my car is a bit heavier. I use the same kit of the f36. I think that xdrive f30 coils are okay and have a bit more adjustability. You can always order the spacer to give yourself some extra adjustment though if you need it. They're pretty cheap (<$40 bucks) IIRC.

Do you have a link to that part? I can't find it on their site.

Just measured the front lip to incline of driveway to my building... thank goodness these cars have short hangovers... I'm at 2-3/4" from hitting... I plan on 1-3/8" drop in the front and 5/8" drop in the back... gonna go with the ST XA for a grand.... can't beat that...
