    Hi gang. Sorry for the fire drill here but if someone can help me out would be super grateful because my sons car is on jackstands and we need to figure this out before the day ends. Quick question, we are doing springs and shocks on his 330ci and when removing the rear springs they look way...

    Hi guys, I know the suspension issue has been discussed to death and there are great resources in this forum. However, it seems like all the everyone else wants to lower or has sports suspension. There isn't much info for someone with standard suspension who just wants to change the springs. On...

    My suspension is pretty shot at this point and I’m looking to give it a refresh. I found this on fcpeuro and wanted to see what you all thought about this kit. I’m also going to buy new springs along with this. https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw-suspension-refresh-kit-bilstein-22103093kt2 e46...

    Hi all, I have a 2001 330ci with the sport package. I recently replaced my struts/shocks and mounts with bilstein b4s and I’ve been thinking about making the ride a bit lower. From what I’ve researched B4s are not ideal with lowering springs and I would have gone a different route if I knew...

    Alrighty guys, I'm back with another question. Some of you will probably tell me to stop wasting your time (I don't consider learning a waste of mine), but I'm curious nonetheless. I have a 2003 330XI with H&R sport lowering springs that I put on awhile ago and LOVE how they ride, but wish they...

    I have 2004 325cic vert with non-sport suspension from the factory. I have BMW wheels style 189, 18 x 8, ET 34 front, and 18 x 8.5, ET 37 rear. Time now for new shocks/stuts/springs. Can you suggest a suspension that will provide minimal lowering (enough to close the gap) and a quality ride...

    Backstory: Back in late February I purchased the UUC Tuned Spring Set V.2 for my 330i ZHP. My main reasoning was their 100% compatibility guarantee with oem struts. After much back and forth with UUC, I finally received a box of springs today with H&R branding. I was expecting this, as a...

    There is a fellow on craigslist who is selling a set of H&R race springs with the 31019 VA stamped onto one of the springs. There also seems to be a 2/2001 stamped on them. Is that the manufacture date? A quick google search brings up the H&R sport cup suspension kit at ECS Tuning. I have a...

    I have a 2000 328ci and I'm running on 18 inch wheels with 255x35 tires all around. It's the coupe so it has factory sport suspension so it really is already decently kinda low but not very. I'm looking for some high quality lowering springs to lower it MAYBE maximum .75 to 1 inch. The h&r race...

    The front driver's side is an entire inch shorter than the passenger's side (1.5" on driver's, 2.5 on passenger's) It is so low on the driver's side that it is pushing my bumper out of place when I make acute turns or when I hit a batch. I am guessing it is the springs, so I'll be switching...

    Hello All, I'm planning on doing my front struts and springs soon. My mechanic buddy suggested I look for something called quick struts. Google hasn't turned up anything but I wanted to ask if such a thing existed for our bimmers? Thank guys!
