LowTec Suspension Group Buy Feb. 1 thru Feb. 28

[enzo]

I bought the 60/35 spring only kit from Mel. So far so good. I have no complaints about these springs. I installed them together with Bilstein Sports. Nice drop, nice stiff ride.

So what's the word on the group buy? Gonna make the requirement?

[BMWE34M5]

We may have to extend the Group Buy thru 3/31 to get the required minimum.

These won't fit an iX would they? I'm thinking no...

One E30ix option:
40/35mm drop (front/rear)
$249 set of 4 springs.

My other option would be H&R/Bilstein

Well it all depends on what you'll be using them for. Track, DD, Mix, Winter Warrior? The drop will be 1.5"/1.37" with a spring rate in between races and sports. Plus, since this is a group buy and you get a deal. You can always re-sell them for close to what you paid for them, if you end up not liking them for some reason.

Plus at any rate Bilsteins are a given. Just order them separately from the guy over on BF.c. He's got good prices. Just ask for a quote.

if anyone was wondering how they look with stock weaves..
here's my 60/35 setup. [with KYBs and GC RSMs]



here it is without lower rear pads.




front clearance with the previous volvo lip.



better clearance with IS lip.



great quality springs.
perfect for daily driven cars.

i wish the fronts were stiffer but it's fine now that i have a skidplate.

thanks mel.

Thanks for the opinion on the springs. It's always good to hear a review from someone that has them. I'm still trying to decide between the 35mm and 50mm backs. I like a more level look so I might go with the 50mm.

I sent the guy a quote for the Bilsteins. Thanks for the thread link.
The iX is a DD that would prolly see auto-x a couple times a year, not much though. I mainly bought it for the purpose of driving up to Lake Tahoe so I can go snowboarding, which is why I'm really hesitant to drop it really low. It sucks to get stuck, and I hate digging cars out.

put me down for a set of 60/50
