I have 2017 S All4 with adaptive dampers. Since there are no aftermarket lowering springs options for All4 I am wondering if I can fit the JCW springs on it? Both car weight similar, both are All4 and have adaptive dampers.

Another issue is I couldn't find part numbers.
Ac Schnitzer offers springs for the f54. I’m just getting that sorted now
Finally install the AC Schnitzer springs on my All4. They worth every dime! Drop is perfect and the ride with dynamic damper in sport mode is wayyy better than OE springs. Excellent body control! I hadn't have chance to push it on mountain road as the lock down in NJ only allow me to run groceries.

that looks fantastic. Are your wheels 18”? My only concern is getting snow and ice jammed in my wheel well in winter. How is it over potholes? Jarring or still preserves some comfort. I’ve been on the fence because of the winter problems. The stock gap always makes me feel like I’m wearing pants that are too short

wow that looks great. interesting- at stock height, i feel inclined to go with 19 inch wheels on my f54. but with a drop, 18s look perfectly at home. damn, what a predicament....
Looks great! How much did they run you and did you do the install yourself?
The price from US AC Schnitzer direct is $640. I found a new set from eBay Canada for $400us and I was happened to be there so I got it.
I had a shop install it with DP and short shift together.
The spring is expensive but worth the price in my opinion. Especially when no one else makes one for All4 as of now.

Yes they are 18" with slightly larger tires 235/40/18. Didn't hit a pothole yet (hopefully never lol) but the body control is much better not as bouncy as OE, the ride is just as firm as before but not more. I used to be running normal mode with my wife in the car now I can run sport mode without afraid her complaint.
I don't know snow with the springs yet but I had lowered VW passat before plus other sport hatch that had low ride height never had issues. The gap isn't much different than those cars.

yea interesting I thought of that too! Before with the 18" I would like the 19" looks but now with the drop I am no longer wishing that!

awesome. I’m in canada, can you DM me the vendor on eBay where you bought them? I was quoted something super high to install them at the dealer. Are you running end links or does the camber seem ok?

if we didn't have a 2 year old, with a second on the way i'd love to set mine up the same way. I have a feeling we may end up upgrading to a countryman for the ride height.

it is actually eBay store from Mini Laval at Montreal. But they only had one in stock you can check with them again.
I hadn't done aliment yet waiting for the spring to settle first.

I can see the convenience with kids on a higher car. But I am a hatch/wagon guy so I love my Clubman

Nice. That’s my dealer they distribute Schnitzer for Canada. I guess now I’m going to have to order them since they are out of stock cause someone bought the last set.
Considering the Eibach springs for my 2017 Clubman S all4. I will not be off-roading my clubman, but I don't want to feel like I am bottoming out all the time. Can anyone who has installed these comment on comfort and tendency to bottom out over standard speed bumps, etc?
I do have DDC on my clubman, although that seems to be a non-issue with the Eibach springs.
also, what difference between a $650 set of springs: https://www.acschnitzer-us.com/ac-sc...bman-f54/p2421
and a $291 set of springs: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-eibach-p...-57-005-02-22/
(other than a 359 dollar price difference?)
