    Coil conversion/5 lug questions

    Gents,

    I am considering going with a 5 lug conversion. I have found a set of wheels I NEED to have so I will be looking for and hopefully picking up an E30 M3 coil conversion in the next few weeks.

    That said, I recently picked up a ground control coil conversion kit for me E30. I have NOT installed this yet an I was wondering if anyone knew if the coil conversion will work with the E30 M3 strut housings etc.

    Thanks in advance!

    Yes, the struts/adjusters/springs will work with the E30 M3 strut housings.
