E30 bottoms out

["Rami Hyary" <rami@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have 91 E30 325iX. I bought the Dinan setup which lower the car somewhat. It suppose to be for a street use. I bottom out as well.
I have complained to Dinan but they did not offer much help. I had the 17" BBS until few weeks ago. I now have the 15" wheels with
original size snow tires. It still bottoms out on potholes. It is terrible and I think it is going to destroy my car. I am going to
complain some more to Dinan but I think I will have to put back the stock setup.
