Anyone have a idea what springs i should get for the front if i have ie3's with no springpads up front and i want to go 1 inch lower? heres a pic

[ian e30 318is]

go with the 60/35 or 60/50. im still trying to decide which ones i should get. if the 60/50 springs are too low, you can make them higher in the back by adding larger springs pads

[e30 gangsta]

i just need the fronts any suggestions?

[So Live]

might be in depending on the rates for the 60/50 springs.

Their catalogue has spring rates in it. http://www.lowtec.de/Katalog_2007.pdf

They look way the fuck off though. Says 845KG for front and 925+ for the rears (i think). Maybe someone can translate a little better. Im nust sure what the AL kg and VA and HA mean. im just assuming those are the rates. If im interpreting it correctly, thats like 2k lbs for the rear and 1700 for the front. Im confused that cant be right.

Can we get a 60/40 kit too? Im not sure the 35 will be enough but 50 might too much.

[BMWE34M5]

You're looking at the load levels per corner not spring rates.
VA is front and HA is rear.

Spring rates for the E30 40mm springs are 187 lbs/inch front and 400 lbs/inch rear.
The 60mm fronts have a spring rate of 320 lbs/inch.

Received some spring rates today-

Are there 318 and 325 specific springs? I'd like to get some for my M42, but I think the 60/50 kit might be too low. However, if I were to get the 60/50 kit for the 325, it would make it more like a 50/40 kit on my 318is.

What is the warranty like on the shocks?
