    Im really curious what the spring rates are for these. I went with the 318i set just to tighten things up. Not interested in dropping it too much. Too many country roads that I drive daily full of dead animals and craters.

    Now you gotta find the hook up on shocks/struts!

    Tried $60, didn't work! Somebody should try $65 though.

    Snagged an m3 set too! Anyone know where to get a decently priced set of shocks?

    Thanks for finding this. Making the slow slow work of upgrading my suspension that much more affordable!


    Looking forward to see the first pics when people get these.

    Might as well try 60! worst they can do is deny and then you offer 70. Glad people are taking advantage of this.

    I called and talked to the folks at KW, who were really nice. They said they've got about 20 pair or so left in stock. Get 'em while they last.

    Holy shit, what a deal! I offered $70 and it was accepted. I don't even need them but I bought them anyway.

    Advertised for 91 318is, 1.5" drop:


    Advertised for all E30 318i, 1.3" drop:


    Advertised for E30 M3, 1.0" drop:


    I went ahead and bought the 318iS set since they have the most drop. They'll be fine for a 6 cylinder car too.

    Also noticed the picture shows them a cool green color but the description says gray color.
    if im not mistaken e30 m3 ride height is .5 in lower. so in total it would be a 1.5 in drop
