Newb question here. I have some issues with very soft suspension, it is so soft that when I hit dips in the road my fronts rub. I did put a different offset on (now 34 instead of 47) but was assured that they wouldn't rub. I've not yet been able to determine if it's the fender lips that are rubbing or the well liner. Anyway, I don't like the feel of the suspension. Earlier in this thread someone mentioned that "all 135i's came with M sport suspension". How could I tell by looking at mine ?
Also, assuming I have it, can I firm up the suspension so that it doesn't dip so hard that it rubs ?
Another question I have is, are there lowering kits I can use that will lower the car but also stiffen the suspension so that by lowering the car I don't make the rubbing worse ?

I'm not looking to spend a huge amount, just looking to first fix the rubbing then look at maybe lowering it later - just wanted to get the information now if possible.

Thanks in advance.
