I just bought that, but havent used it yet...

I've got it, it works fine on the struts. Too big to get it on the rears.

I've got ones like the harbor frieght ones, but they have saftey retaining pins so the compressor is impossible to pull off the spring under tension. These are kind of tough to use on e30 springs, but you can hook up air wrenches to tighten them.

Look at the picture, the HF compressor has a safety pin on each claw.
