So no one uses stock BMW springs from one application to another? I've been through this thread & the one with spring rates.
Our faithful '85 325e has been driven by my wife, so has not had any performance mods - perfect the way it is, she says. It is now in my & 16 y/o son's hands! There is a hand's width between the top of the tires & bottom of wheel wells, so we'd like to bring it down a bit.
I found a set of used stock 325is springs (son is on a budget) - is that any improvement or drop?
Thanks in advance. Son & I have a chance to bond over this project! He will be spending some time behind the wheel with our NCC's highway safety school and Street Survivor programs.
