    Ride along in e30 w/ H&R Race + Bilstein Sport

    Anyone with this suspension setup can give me a ride? I want to gauge how harsh this setup will be for a car that will never see the track. Thanks

    Its not a harsh ride,more bouncy if anything.

        I got h&r sports will billy sports. Its kinda bouncy but thats it. Id go with ie3's though cause H&R springs are a tad too soft and cause the rears to bind.

          I'm on races and Billie HDs (same as sports but less travel). I'm in the South Bay and you're welcome to take a ride if you like.

                If you don't plan on taking your ride to the track I'd recommend h&r sports/bilstein sport combo. I've had my set for about 5k miles and I feel its the perfect street setup. Its not too stiff, and your not too low that a pebble won't jack up your car. I'm in Daly City but I'm sometimes in the east bay area, I'd be willing to give you a ride if you like.

                  I have H&R Race with Konis and IE 22/19 sways. For some it would be on the stiff side for a DD, but for me it's fine. I actually plan to go a bit stiffer when I go 5-lug and GC. The main problem for me is actually the ride height. It's just a bit lower than I'd like. If you're down in the south bay and I have time free I'd be glad to take you for a ride.

                    I no longer have the race springs on the car, but I can give you a ride with Turner J stock springs ( more than twice the spring rate of the Race Springs) Its not a harsh ride at all. I'm up in Napa, and have a set of Bilsteins and H&R Race springs for sale.
