Ok I have a 91 318i and want it higher, have seen post of using the convertible springs. My question though is that the best choice and I also can get my hands on the 325ix springs are those taller too.

Also the free length would be great for the stock 318i, convertible and the 325ix springs if someone knows them -
Can't help with your question, but I'm curious, why you are doing this? Rally?Comment

Doing it for fun, I just went ahead and ordered a set of the vert springsComment

Comfy rideComment

Well really don't know yet, drive like a mile, and my right rear shock is blown outComment

There's also a thicker factory spring pad available for another 1/4" of height or so.
Throw some KYB stock replacements in there. It will ride like a dream.Comment

This thread confuses me, you're not lifting it, and your not lowering it. Just making it more awkward?
Or is this some sort of new trend to make it look like the car is resting on jack stands? Well at least changing oil won't require a jack anymore.Comment

Actually it is lifting it, going to be putting 27x8.50r14, doing it similar to what someone else on here did to theresComment
