Agreed 110%. This isn't 1998 when the cars had 6 inches of wheel gap. No M cars made in the last 15 years look remotely high. Not only that, these people might be getting like 1% better handling versus stock (in other words, they likely don't even notice the difference) considering the stock suspension is already great. I swear people just do this to say they "modded" their car and basically burn money.....makes no sense.

Lowering springs are pretty much moot technology at this point....

Wider tires I get.....but lowering springs I just don't.
