Lowering Nr2. FK Automotive 35\30 >>> KAW 50\35
 

After visiting a meeting, and when i saw Fabian`s low Xedos, i all the time was searching those KAW springs.

Suddenly found on eBay auction and bought it for the funny price.
I put now only front, because i`m working now on rear side.
Here you can check how it was with FK springs

Very nice work, and the 50/35 KAW springs still are my faves, I put them back in after a year with the 40/40 FK, just like you. 8)

I guess I'll need to do that too, the back ones look pretty crappy and rusty on my X6.

mfg, Wolfgang

Woolf,
you should do the same.
I have Xedos in good condition, but you see, some rust is too..

I ended. Soo will take good large photos of all Xedos.
I like how it fits now.
ET55 with 205x50x17 fits really great with genuine no bended arch.;)

xedos
 

but if you have 3 people on the back seat it is still ok? doesn't toch the fenders..wheel arches?

Yesterday, i tested rear arches.
Put three friends inside on back seat.
So, everything OK. No scratches.

xedos
 

first , i want to apologise for my bad english.
does the dual back contact conector ftis ok in front signal light??or do you have to do some modification?when you turn signal on is brighter than parkinglight light?i guess is just like on the back lights.
i like yours folding mirrors...for a long time i dream at those mirrors:)
can i put some folding mirrors or i had to modifide mine with some parts from the folding ones?does it has a litle motor wich folds the mirrors?
why do you change the 215/45/17 tires?it was rubbing in fenders or shock absorber? 225/45/18 fits or it to wide and tall?
xedos will be slower with wider tires?
