    Spring needed

    Hey, anybody has a set of e30 M3 stock springs that want to sell me? I can do either straight cash, or make a deal using my current lowering springs.

    Let me know.

      Learned from experience it's better to buy a new set of M3 springs. I had two sets and for some reason the rears sat lower making a high negative camber. Decided to bite the bullet and order new springs; corrected the situation.

      I like the ride height and comfort of the M3 springs; better than HR OEs. Using Koni Yellos and UUC sway bars. Perfect as a daily driver with great handling.

      Not into the slammed appearance and stiff suspension. Being an OG and going thru life experiences from 510s with factory race setup to E30 Eibach/Bilstein setups, my current setup suites me well now.

      Spend the $ on new factory M3 springs; I did after wasting what I thought was a low cost way to do a M3 setup. Keep in mind springs like any other material wear over use and do sag. if you do find used springs, get an idea on their mileage.

        Thanks for the feedback. I think you are right. Will also be looking into getting a new set of Bilsteins Sports I think. I am not hot-rodding the car and only use it for spirited driving, so anything harder/lower does not fit my purpose.
