I know where the original gold wheels are

That particular car did have some gold wheels when JA first got it. They are Subaru wheels but I dont know if they were factory spec for the carthe wrx didnt come with gold oem , only the STI as far as iam aware.
Oh my word this thread has exploded
Alright let me clear some things up , ( but before I do, i’d like to thank the people that actually helped me and gave me proper information on how to lower a car and where to start , as I’ve never done anything like this. And also thanks for explaining to the few very small minded people such as Toxic and Sauron that lowering a car isn’t always bad. )
I literally wanted to drop my car a few mm’s and not to the point where I have to go sideways over a bump , as I have put aftermarket rims on and it’s increased the wheel arch gap a little , I just want that gap to decrease a little bit.
Now , I only took the salesman’s word because it was a tyre and suspension shop, So I was assuming they knew what they were talking about.
Secondly , I have now asked this on the bmw thread and received proper replies and information and I appreciate that.
Also lol, I stream to twitch and my motto when someone follows me is “ Stay woke” , so I’ve put it on my car and I don’t care if you don’t like it , because I do .
Also to Toxic , Saurons , Tander , I wanna say “your p**s “ but that would be against the rules so I won’t .
Thanks again for the genuine replies.
Awww so cute... so you’re all woke and shyte then are you?
I believe that, in the OP’s case, the motto Stay Woke is aspirational, and that she hasn’t quite reached those giddying heights yet.
1. Don't do it.
2. If you still want to do it. Visit the local BMW fanatics forum for advice.

That is what you should have done from the start
This is not a "Lower my car" type of forum![]()
Besides, bikes turn heads. Not cars.
I consider myself educated and would hope that my IQ is at least average (need to get that MENSA test done), but can assure you that no car I buy will go without changes.
You do realise that will always lower resale value?
You do realize that some of us like modding cars , it’s a hobby. We don’t mindlessly see cars as a large chunk of steel that goes from A to B.
You sound very narrow minded my friend, let people enjoy things , go be grumpy elsewhere.
Now see here young whippersnapperD ), I was just giving you the honest advice you claimed, earlier, that you were looking for? And then the snide comments?
But, alarm bells are ringing with me about you. Who is this collective modding "we" you talking about, seeing as you came here, on this forum, to ask advice about lowering a car?
In other words, if you part of a modding community, you just came here to troll. Or is it just eks again...![]()
Let the alarm bells ring bud, I didn’t ask you about resale value , nobody did actually , so no , you didn’t come here to give any helpful advice
The most helpful advice is often that not asked for, eks![]()

Do it
And then after 3 months when you put the original springs in, you can come back here and well accept your apology.
