    i don't find these in the slightest way appealing. they will handle like royal crap. look at those front springs, they are tapered...what the fuck. those shocks and inserts will last about 10 feet of driving. this looks like whoever gets involved will get royally ripped off.

    Ever looked at the rear springs on an e30?

      of course not hes an expert.

      I think most people that have shown interest in the JOM's in the other thread and this one are not under the impression that they are getting a 2000 kit for 380. For me this is a cheap way to get low. I paid 900 for my German Supercar so to me a cheap drop on a cheap car that will never see a drop of rain or a track is no biggy.

        rethink what you just said. look at the pics above. look at the front springs. how in any possible way do they relate to rear springs?

          I know what i said. Im not sure why the tapering scares you, rear springs are always tapered on e30s unless you run coil springs.

              if tapering was good or even on par with stock why did no coilover company make it except for this "JOM" company?

              rears are bulged. not tapered.

                There is JOM discussion thread that you have already posted in. If you want to debate further please do it there. This is a group buy thread and you obviously arent going to buy a set.

                I appriciate your input but this thread is not the place.

                  Because most companies also want to sell you camber plates or tophats. this works with stock mounts. Really not that big of a deal dude.

                      No one will know they are "Royal Crap " till its tested by and w/ and E30. Some people want to lower it(car). But anywhos its there money. they can spend it anyway they want.

                        I'm interested. I'd like to hear feedback from somebody who's got this kit already first though.
                        And just to double check, these do come with the shocks & struts, right?

                        You don't know what you are talking about.
                        The spring is tapered to be able to adapt to the stock upper strut bearing.

                        No coilover company doing this? How about the Bilstein PSS9/PSS10, H&R coilovers, and others.
