springs and shocks for e30 318 Touring

[cristian1]

Hi everyone.I want to lower my e30 touring and I found out that the springs in the back are different from other e30 models.Can you guys give me some suggestions how to do it without have to order them from Europe.I would like to keep the back a little higher than the front.
Thanks for opinions

yes, the tourings came with slightly higher spring rates because it was a wagon for the time.

how much shit are you actually going to tow/stow in that thing? I'd be safe in safe that whatever springs you get for a sedan will be just fine with the touring. keep the spring pads in the rear, should give you natural rake..if not enough, invest in drop hats.
