yes. I'd say maybe .75 to 1 inch max.

 

Yep, I'd say they dropped it a bit.

 

Yes it's lowered.

 

yup,
i agree w/ astro
about 3/4 to an inch
boxcars

 

a little , but could be wheel tire combo .

 

thank you guys for your assistance!

 

yes

 

Yeah it looks like it's lowered. Just look through the wheel, or pull one off, and check out the springs. If they are colored then you have your answer, most aftermarket springs are either green, blue or red, depending on the brand.

 

Looks dropped to me. Maybe M7 springs given the drop in the rear, which looks more substantial.

 

Does it have a JCW suspension sticker on the radiator cowl?

 

Looks lowered... looks great! Before I saw my MINI, I was pretty set on BRG/W.

 

i'm not sure if it has the JCW sticker. but it is on 205 55 16's if that helps anyone. i'll be popping the wheels off tomorrow so i'll check them out. thanks again for the help!

 

Looks lowered to me too - eibach springs can be black but there will be a white sticker on them, as others have said have peek through the wheels....

 

ok so i've looked through the wheels and there is no distinctive color to the springs. but there is a part number on them. i didn't write it down but i will do that tomorrow and search for that part number to see what the springs are. thanks again for all that posted.

 

si i called the dealer and gave them the vin and they sent me the list of options and here it is. the suspension says sport suspension settings plus. so could this thing still be stock?
