The i3 is a great family daily car, but the ride quality left something to be desired, and when Imran's daughter was complaining he knew it was time to do something.
Working closely with Bilstein a set of replacement Dampers have been developed that effectively improve the ride quality whilst working with the original spring. Alongside this we also developed a lowering spring to reduce the arch gap and improve the aesthetics.

I did go for the standard i3S springs, I only upgraded the shocks - all I can say is WOW - what a difference - why did BMW not make the car like this to start with? The car is still rock solid on motorways (this is why I went for the S version), still handles through corners, but the ride is so much more controlled. I have gained so much confidence driving on the bad country lanes with the new Evolve Bilstein shock absorbers. The car no longer jumps or jolts and has a much more controllable ride. A truly impressive transformation. Better in town, corners well and now handles the roads in my area without trouble. Well done to the guys at Evolve, and thanks for sorting out the niggles without fuss.

My i3 Will need new shocks, would you still consider them now after 10 months? I’m looking at options and honestly not sure which to choose but I then to agree that i3 on stock suspension don’t match the bad roads we have in UK 😂

Great video! Question, when you did the R&D on the springs, how did you approach the difference in weight of the REx vs BEV models? Since the BEV is lighter, aren’t the springs not over sprung? Cheers.

Do you offer fitting of both springs/dampers and new shock gaters with wheel alignment at Evolve or is it just the sale of the parts? I'm not a million miles away and very tempted by these.

Unfortunately we do not offer wheel alignment but can install the springs and dampers - we have a fully functioning workshop for customer cars as well as our development vehicles.

We live in norway and just bought a 2021 i3. I was looking around to switch the standard springs and found a H&R set that many seems to recommend. Are these springs somewhat similar to H&R? I know little about this

Still kinda wondering if anyone will make a widebody kit for these since both the front and rear quarters unbolt, yeah? Did a quick sketch of what one might look like a while ago when I almost bought an i3, and was pretty stoked on the idea. Still really like the i3, but ultimately we went with an id.4.
@EvolveAutomotive
@EvolveAutomotive Жыл бұрын
Whilst that is true, without cutting the metalwork beneath you wouldn’t gain any extra room. The i3s has the same amount of inner clearance as the regular i3. Also widebody and big wheels will quickly kill the range, defeating the point of the car
@gvngoheavy
@gvngoheavy Жыл бұрын
@@EvolveAutomotive Definitely respect those points. I guess I was thinking from a show car or track car perspective. I was thinking that with a widebody you could run smaller wider wheels and have the widebody drop the wheel arches down. I could definitely see these chassis' getting hotrodded in the future since they are a carbon monocoque. Totally different perspective from your daily run about setup, which I understand and respect.

Just to chime in, there are several successful examples of i8 wheels fitted on the i3S with 12mm spacers - you can run 215 front, 245 rear tires, which not only improves handling and eliminates the wobbling issue, but also opens choices to tyre manufacturers. Cheers.

I have a 2017 REX with 70,000 miles - all original except for new tires recently - love car, but ride is, and has always been, terrible - much bouncing and seems to be “porpoising” (on bumps, cabin rocks front to back to front, etc.). Which of your products will give me a smoother ride over road bumps? Springs alone will do it? Shocks alone? Both springs and shocks?

The shocks alone will fix the issue you are facing. Add springs if you want a lower look and sportier handling car.
