    iX coil springs? Are they interchangeable?

    Are the front coils on the iX interchangeable?

    Can I use front springs from a 325i .. or is.. or whatever for an iX?

    Any difference?

    Any other cheap alternatives if I'm looking to switch out worn front springs?

    Any one have some for sale :D ?

    No one knows?

    Well.. if someone does..

    Would the rears be interchangeable aswell?

    What about rear shocks?

    THANK YOU

      My understanding is the front suspension on the iX is completely different than the regular e30. The rears, however, are interchangeable with other e30's.

        they will fit, but they'll probably be too short & too soft.

          I'm inclined to agree...........

            I'm under the impression that only the rears are compatable
