The suspension setup/ride height thread

[yungmike]

Currently running a set of ie stage 3 springs with some kyb shocks and i'm looking into replacing said shocks to really dial in my suspension and firm it up even more. So should i go with some billy sports or koni sa's?

Suspension refresh; control arms, powerflex bushings, billy sports and the Vogtland springs that Yungmike ���� just sold me!

Here's the before and after, I'm hoping the fronts settle a bit, just got them on tonight. But the ride is infinitely better than the blown out stock that was on there...

if the fronts dont settle put a pair of e90 drophats on, should make it perfect! the calypso looks awesome!

Just put on Koni's and IE3 springs and love it, I think i left the konis on full soft and haven't played with it yet but looks way better than before that looked like a 4x4.

Still on the stock top hats and running both rear spring pads?

Would be amazing with little lower in front. still great fitment. Clean car with cool wheels.

IE3s, drop hats, bilstein sports, no pads up front, both pads in rear. 205/45/16 tires

This just sold me on this exact setup, I believe it'll look great with e38 style 5s. what drop hats are these I wonder?

Those will not work, you need ix specific shocks and springs for the front. Or you can use Koni race inserts in the front and cut the housings down so you can have decent ride quality still.

Here mine with the ix grond control coils
