Survey on lowering method
Let's try a survey on lowering method for our cars.
Any experiences and comments on your lowering method will be welcomed.
And a question, do you think lowering affect longevity of the airmatic system?

07 E63 4 washers on each side in the front.Bent the rear bracket ever so slightly and she sits pretty. Took longer to put the jack under the car than to do the job.Great MOD if there is no failures.
When I push the vehichle rising button it does not seem to go high as I thought but it will do well for winter months.Looks stock comfort height when button is on.
The ride is great and doent feel like a lowered car to me.
Can anyone please let me know after this Washer Mod does the car go even lower when at high speeds or is it stay there? I read somewhere the car is suppose to lower itself after 70 MPH or so? This would be a ill effect I will guess if it does cause then the car must be slammed on the highway.

I just did washers as an initial step. It dropped the front pretty significantly. I used some thread locker to ensure nut stays on.
