i found some ST suspensions 1.5" lowering springs for $100 for my 91 318is, could i run these with my stock shocks to get my car a little bit lower while i save up for adjustable coilovers? thanks

Yep I did...If its ebay dont pay 100.00. Offer 70 and they will take the offer. Guarenteed. Huge thread over on R3v about them. I decided to jump in and im very impressed.

Post that r3v thread! I'm tired of that big fender gap in front. How are the springs settling in? Any problems with the install?

Nevermind, found it:

The 1.5" springs are currently for sale, here's the EBay listing.

In the interests of the 'club I just ordered a set. It went just like Fanboi said - I hit them with the $70 offer and they accepted. Thanks Fanboi!

Expect a full review once they get here & get installed.:cool:

I think they are great! Didn't have to give up any smoothness. Corners better. Stiffer than stock but not bad at all. I was worried they may be too stiff but I'm very happy with them. Will post more pics later
