        the ones for a 318i. yeah it's lower than I expected, but I'm not complaining :)

        that's the plan. I need wider wheels. and right now my camber is all funky from the drop.

          Laura,

          That's crazy low! I should've bought the 318i springs than the 318is! I'm straight jelly Clarkson.

                I would not be surprised if they were all the same springs. If a M3 is a half inch lower then the 318is from the factory then the net drop would be different even though the final result is they both sit at the same final height.

                  I just ordered the 318is springs for my 91' 325i. All I hope is that there isn't any rake or oil-pan-cracking lowness. I'll post some nice pictures and specs after I install them and drive around a bit.

                      I found a set, it says for 318i.
                      would it fit on an 325e????

                      about to order a set....

                        Well, I'm getting EuroWeaves, so hopefully the extra inch will allow the 'cautiousness' to let up. If not, I'll sell 'em to someone for $60 ;)

                          Nigel, they all have different part numbers though. I would probably run the M3 springs on a 325. The M3 is heavier than the 318. Besides, the H&R race/IE3 springs are E30 M3 spec springs and many people like them on the 325.
                          "I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj

                                Wow, I got my springs in ONE day. They must be really close by to where I live.

                                Anyway, they are so PUNY!



                                I'll post pictures of these installed, if they're too low I'll sell 'em to someone local for cheaper than $70.
