- An alignment. Any change in ride height changes camber and toe. Set your final height first, then align.
- Camber and toe adjustment. Bigger drops often need adjustable arms or camber plates to align properly. See alignment and camber kits.
- Healthy dampers. Springs work best on dampers in good condition. If yours are old, consider replacing them or going to coilovers.
- Wheel and tire clearance. Check clearance at full lock and full compression, especially with wider wheels. Our ride height and wheel fitment calculator shows how much drop and offset change you are planning.
- The right spring rate. Compare the rates listed here with what our spring rate calculator suggests for your car's weight and use.

Questions about BMW 540i lowering springs
Will this fit my BMW 540i?
It is listed for the BMW 540i. Check your year, model, drivetrain and chassis code against the product title. If anything is different, contact us and we will confirm fitment with the supplier before you order.
Do I need an alignment after installing lowering springs?
Yes. Changing ride height changes camber and toe. Set your final height, let the suspension settle, then get the car aligned.
How low can I go?
It depends on the adjustment range the brand lists, your wheels and tires, and how you use the car. Most cars that are driven hard work best with a modest drop that leaves enough suspension travel.
Where do specs and warranty details come from?
