Need 2.5" drop- Advice on what setup to use?

[shameson]

As mentioned above, my e30 is sitting too high. Damn those stock springs. Anyways, Im curious at what suspension setup I should use to achieve this 2.5" drop, front and back.

Keep in mind Im running on price limit, so I dont want something too expensive. I want something thats good quality and a good price. No crappy, cheapy stuff

Here is a picture of the car for reference. The shocks are shot so its all going bye bye

Table is open, suggestions?

JOM coils are pretty decent. (sig's a chop but I have JOMs)

H&R Race/IE3's.

JOM's seem to have good reviews. Where's the best place to find them and about how much do they run?

Ground control springs+ adjusters (spring rates of your choice) $399
Bilstein sports $450-550

Yes there are cheaper ways to lower a car but you bought a BMW because they were designed and built to be the best. If BMW used cheap parts it would be no better than any cheap throw away car. Use quality stuff to keep your BMW a BMW.

I would recommend them. I guess they're not for everyone but they're nice for the price. I have nothing to complain about other than the back doesn't go low enough for me.

I realize that. I'm not trying to be cheap. I also own a Mercedes so i believe
in quality over price. I'm just trying to get options on pricing and don't want to spend over $1000 on dropping it like some guys do.

I was already looking at Ground controls with Eibachs, which is probably what I'm going to run. Just gathering info on what fellow e30 guys like.

$440 shipped for those JOM coilovers? That's pretty insane. Not sure if I'd trust quality on those.

Just read the reviews. They're awesome for the price.
