    Lowering springs and matching struts 325i

    I'm keeping original wheels and adding BF GOODRICH 205/60R14 TRACTION TA tires.Want to lower car and also need matching struts.Leaning toward Bilstein "touring" or ? "sport" shocks.Not sure of springs but know I don't want a real stiff,jarring ride.Need to get this right first time.Any advice would be appreciatedThank's Harold

    If you plan lowering then you want to opt for the Bilstein Sports versus the HeavyDuty's .

    Same valving but HD's are meant for stock or near stock ride height .

    For a tried and trued package you can't go wrong with H&R Sport springs coupled with Bilstein Sport struts & shocks .

          +1 for Billy sport/H&R sport. Even my H&R race ride pretty nice.
