What he said. The stock struts will be taking a beating, and seeing as how you got BMW to install the springs, I hope you have deep pockets when the time comes to fix any suspension related issues.

^ I'm pretty sure labor and parts aren't going to be an issue for him.

I'd be more worried about compromised handling. The BMWs handle great out of the box, and only doing springs without matched damping might result in reduced cornering performance.

Saw you driving the CSX this morning, whos driving the BMW

Nice new car!

I have a buddy with the H&R's and stock struts on his car while I have the Eibach Pro kit and Koni FSD combo on mine. Mine isn't quite as low but ride is waaaaay better and handling is virtually the same. I would seriously consider some different struts. My buddy actually just ordered the same set up as me for the winter.

Here is a pic of mine so you can see the difference in ride height:

i've rocked H&R race springs on almost on all my cars and never had any problems. my 88 crx si, no problems, 95 civic coupe, no problems. my 00 ITR for 2yrs, no problems. my 01 integra SE for 3yrs no problems (and just recently the shocks on that car were starting to sweat). Which i think in general is pretty good.
But then i know guys that have had the same springs and had to buy new shocks after 6 months. Driving difference's, who knows.

This car handled great off the lot. But after putting these springs in WOW, reduced conering performance? more like IMPROVED cornering performance x 5. No it actually handles alot better than we had expected. My brother does all the dinan packages and all the aftermarket parts for the dealership and he was quite suprised with the handling of my car just with the springs alone. But he has also suggested me to get some different shocks later on down the road. But what do i know I'm a HONDA guy. new territory for me.

I like my cars really low. The car is quite a bit stiffer but i don't mind and neither does the wifey. We are pretty much immune to it, but yeah i was thinking of getting some koni's or bilstein's later on down the road. your car looks good!!

It's easier to do projects this way.

HOLD ON A MINUTE!

Reps. OEM M6 wheel offsets are too low to fit on E90.
