    Hey guys,

    I just bought my first E30. 1986 325e w/ 103k miles on the clock. I picked it completely stock nothing done to it. Except some lame led fog lights. I paid about a grand for it. Really clean car. Just a dent on the passenger side fender. Very small amount of rust.

    So far what I've done was just an H&R sport cup kit. 15x8 sportmaxx 002 wheels with 0 offset all around. Replaced the rotors and pads all around as well.

    Here are some quick shots at work

          it is lowered trust me. it looked like it was lifted. h&r springs. 2" drop. didn't have enough money to get coil overs. plus it hasn't settled just yet. i needed to replace it asap because the shocks/struts were blown. so it was a little scary driving it on the highway.

                  Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think it's going to be a noticeable difference. I'm happy with the drop. There is no rubbing or scrapping that I have to deal with.

                    Thanks. I'm just trying to focus more on suspension. It's going to be more of my DD with some AutoX and hopefully track days. Sway bars are next.
