Hello everybody, Own a 2016 Mini Paceman All 4 S. Currently there is no suspension mods done, but I am looking to start making some changes. This vehicle is used as a daily driver, And it will never see a track.
Ive got a couple questions to start with I suppose

1) Which company’s can I start looking at for both options of coil overs and just lowering springs?
2) Honest opinions on which avenue to go down being that it’s a daily driver?
3) Does anybody have pictures and before/after specifications of how much the car is actually lowered? ( with what you’ve used added in of course )
4) Are the PM and CM suspension systems compatible with each other ?

Picture of the car attached



Thanks in advance,

Nice looking PM-S

for 4) Yes.

My newly acquired PM-S has some work done but somehow the aftermarket rear lower control arm was broken and the rear sway bar bushing (aftermarket 24 or 25mm) was shot and was clunking. even though all for struts were replaced with lowering springs, the ride was too stiff for my liking. I like the car low, but sometimes I wonder if lifting it will make it more durable for the winter!

Do yourself a favor and start with just a sway bar. See what that does before going crazy with mods.

 

The rear sway bar wouldn’t help me with lowering the car, however yes I’ve read that’s a good mod and will likely do such anyways !

 

thank you!
