Title: 60mm front 40 mm back
Post by: MikeGratiano on November 20, 2012, 12:43:49 PM

Happy to be back on M42. Bringing the e30 back had a quick question.

I normally go through Bav Auto in NH for parts while rebuilding but they were unable to help me. I'm looking for a company that could provide a 60mm drop for the front springs and 40 mm drop for the rear, just a tucked look with just enough room to get over some speed bumps.

Not too familliar with many brands but eibach didnt have anything lower and neither did koni, where should I be looking or should I be looking at combining multiple brands? Looking for a slammed aggressive look with the nose down a bit while not being to harsh and well damped.

Thank you

Try H&R Sport springs, put some Bilstein sport shocks with that and you'll be pretty happy.

and may want to consider buying a skid plate while you're at it...

Spring sets for less than €60? Are those made in China and only for show/stance?
