Is this really the stock height?

[unevolved]

Eibach Pro-kit with Bilsteins. Basically, what stock ride height should have been. Doesn't look "low", just doesn't look 4x4.

Houston is not the deep south.

What are you running in terms of suspension?

[kkamakasi]

Umm...no. There are shitty roads everywhere.

Dont get your panties in a bunch.. I was only just kidding

I might try to bring the front down a little bit with the e90 drop hats.
I don't mind the 4x4 look but what gets me is how the fronts are so much higher than the back.

stock ride hight makes me feel like im going to tip over.

I know, right? That extra 1.5" of elevation is totally throwing off the center of gravity the room full of German engineers designed that way.

I dont like the way the lowering springs ride. It's too harsh.
Also, I dont like the fact that they eat up tires due to the fact that they mess with alignment and especially the fact that the rears are not adjustable.

plus, i dont think you understand the road situation here in the deep south.. you think you know potholes? pshh... you dont know $hit.

Umm...no. There are shitty roads everywhere.

Looks nice, is your car an is model? I have been thinking about getting OE sports for my car. What dampers are you using and how does it feel now?

If that's directed at me then yes, it's an '87 iS. I'm running regular Sports and Koni SAs at all four corners. The ride is nothing short of awesome. The stock dampers weren't blown when I replaced them (surprise!) but the ride quality and handling is definitely improved. I highly recommend this setup for a DD car.

This has just turned into the monster truck thread, with everyone posting 4x4 e30s, lol

I'll for a comfy ride, but stock height looks silly to me. I would atleast put some drop hats on that thing, bring it down a bit.

[Cephas]

Needs more low in here.

OP, maybe ask grays how to jack up your car and cut a dead coil out with a floorjack and a hacksaw blade from Harbor Freight?
