AST Lowering Springs (Non HAS)

Like title states, anyone running these? How is ride? Debating between these and EVOLVE but liked the slightly less aggressive drop of the AST

Just ordered the AST springs. Will update once they are installed as it seems like not many people have installed them

Update for those following. Springs installed yesterday with 15/17 spacers. So far happy with how they turned out. Ride I would say is OEM comfort maybe even a tad softer? Drop is good not to aggressive hoping they settle a tad bit more

Been using AST since the e92 M3 days and have been very happy with them, don't expect them to disappoint on this platform.

Just ordered my AST springs! Thanks for the thread, helped me decide between these and Eibach springs. These seem to have more drop to them.

Are you getting any rubbing issues with the drop and spacers? I'm debating between the AST or KW HAS kit and will be running 15/12 spacers. The car came with Yokohama tires, which I've read have a tendency to rub...

No rubbing. Debating going to bigger spacers actually

Distinct automotive. Best by far in our area for any tint and PPF work
