H&R race springs are red right?
Whats the spring rates on these springs for the 318i model?

I'm pretty sure that all H&R springs are red, not too sure though.

[bwanac]

NO I have H&R sport and they are black.

alright, like i thought...i was wrong...i know some H&R springs are red. I thought eibach's were the only black. Guess not

[Mitch318i]

What I think

thats what I mean, I seen some in white, some in red, some in a gray.

From websites I think:
red is race
white is sport
gray with black ettering is oem
black with gray lettering is cup


I just wanted to check, because everyone says the spring rates are kinda stiff... but i notice very little problems for harshness... by any means, my springs feel the same (although it was a full canadain winter without driving the car between oem and H&R

Hope someone out there knows...

I thought the eibach prokit was red...

I've got one in my garage, but haven't seen it yet. But my friend has a eibach pro kit on his e36 M3 and it's black....

You cant go by that.
The color of the spring depends on 2 parts.
Car it was specified for (M3, 318,cabrio, 325)
and
The model of spring (Race, sport, cup)

I just sold a set of Sports from an M3 that were red.
My eibach Race springs are blue iirc.

My 318i H&R Sports were red.

If you have springs but are not sure what they are, you can always check the 5-digit part number on the spring with the website.

[nando]

mine are light blue. :)

[randomtask37]

my sports are red

[E30godz]

there were actually two different sizes of H&R sports available:

one being the 1.3 lowerng all the way around, the other being a 1.5/1.3 inch drop

the later is what i have, and these springs are red.
