Anyone of you lowered guys ever run into this problem? It seems the passenger's side axle can contact an A/C line and damage it over time. Apparently Mini changed the routing of the A/C hose several times so it's a crapshoot weather or not you will have a problem with it
Picture of the problem area with zip ties supporting the line.

here is a picture of the stock Bilsteins with stock H&R springs set on the lowest setting (lock nuts bottomed out).
It actually looks a little lower perched on my driveway than on level ground...It drove without vibrations nor issues- it wasnt low enough for my liking so I had the H&R coils put in
Still drives great without vibration (or tire rubs). Hope this helps

Theres alot going on with the appearance of the car - red, yellow, grey, black, silver, chrome. Its pretty busy looking and all that breaks up the lines and smooth corners of the car. Also, when you can have exclusive wheels why go with after market that anyone can purchase? GP's are nice cars..............
