Lowered car, looks like *ss

[MrK]

I just put in sport lowering springs (don't know the brand, they were bought second hand, the brand name had evidently worn off). They're red, and they lowered my touring about 1.75" front and back. They seem progressive, since they're still kinda comfy when I drive normally, and stiffen up drastically as they are compressed.

BUT, the original reason I put them is to lower the front of the car a little more than the back, but now the back is in-line with the front (character lines are now parallel to the ground. In my opinion, that looks like *ss. I wanted the back to still be a little higher than the front for that aggressive stance. Would putting my stock springs back into the rear cause death/destruction on the highway or is it worth a try? Or maybe I should get thicker rubber pads for the rear (if any exist).

Suggestions?

there's bigger pads or you can run 2 at a time...stock springs would be way too soft.

and you'll get too much understeer with soft springs in back....the e30 are already prone to understeer so i wouldn't want to make things worst :D

Take the pads out of the front and add some to the rear.

Take the pads out of the front and add some to the rear.

I had to use a 10mm pad on top of a 5mm pad in the rear to make my late '80's car look right. I now how about the same fender gap f & r and the car is nicely raked...

I used two 10mm.
