Ride height
I've searched for these numbers and can't find anyone that's posted them so far. Can someone with a stock 135 measure the ride height from the ground to the top of the wheel well arch? Front and rear please? Thanks so much in advance.

My 135i measured 25 3/4" fronts
26 1/4 rears I dropped the fronts/rears by 1" after installing the Cross Coilovers & Camber plates today. I could drop it by at least another 1/2" but just didn't think is was necessary. 225-40R-18 fronts Bridgestone Potenza RE960 245-40R-18 rears " On 269 Performance wheels Call

That explains why I'm asked if the car is lowered. I'm at 25" F&R on stock tires. Call, do you have the sports package? I think your production date was really close to mine.

Yes, I had the sport pkg.
And as for the Cross Coil overs...I had them shipped direct from Japan thru a friend which makes my ONE the first in the States to have them & maybe only the third in the world. I think there are two 135i's in Japan with them that are test drifting cars. I am not sure when they will be released to the general public. Call

I'm at 25.25" front and 25.5" rear. How do you like the Eibachs, 1nut?

They're very good...stiffens it up and decreases roll. My wife even thinks it's a better ride, more "secure" in the corners! I was happy to see my tires/wheels - 8 fr, 8.5 rear, PS2's 225/40 f, 255/35 r, still clear fine. But, I didn't replace stock struts and shocks (expense). I think it may still need a beefier front sway bar which may be my next mod.

Of course that's correct. But the OP didn't request the info in that form.
