Hey, I have a quick question, I have a 91 318i and i found a set of h&r sport springs for sale for $100. The seller says they are for a 325i only. the front are grey and the rear are red color, but both springs have the same part# 50406.
Will these fit my car? and also why are the colors different from front and back?
Thanks for the input guys.

Dave,

Mtle30-I've seen these springs go from $247 down to $209, so my first question would be--why $100 (this alone would cause the "PROOF" to hold the seller suspect) my second question would be to the seller--why are they two different colors, because on the sites that i've searched their only one color(matching). Now according to TunerMotorsport that part# fits.

FYI the correct H&R part number for 318is springs is 50404:

Different color springs front & rear would be a big red flag for me.

Just came across this in another thread... 50404 vs. 50406

I'm trying to decide between the two. :confused:

They will definitely fit. Not sure why he said they're for a 325 only. I run the 325 H&R Sports on my car and love them.
