    Pic Request: '91 318is w/M3 springs

    I'm looking for pictures of a 1991 318is w/e30 M3 springs. I'm just curious to see the ride height. Thanks in advance.

    it'd be less than an inch lower, not much difference in appearance

        m42technic has what you need, but he also has 10mm deeper spring hats in the front (extra ~0.4" drop).

          rwdrift, do both of those have M3 springs? Also, do you or does anyone have a side-on shot? Thanks... I'm picking up a new car Saturday with them, and I just want to see other peoples' cars w/the springs.

            Its not that much lower, but the handling difference is night and day. Sorry about the so-so pic, its the best one I already have online and Im not at home.

              This is my 318is on H&R sports. I didn't think they made much of a difference. The drop will be less with the M3 springs.

              the only way to lower a 318is is with race springs.

                Wow.

                Actually the drop the M3 springs gave me on my car (granted with the 10mm front hats) looks very simiular to that pic of H&R sports on your car.

                  Here is my 318is with Turner J-stock (race) springs, like 2 years ago. Pardon the stickers...I was 16....and they made the car...faster. 8)

                  Small tires too, 195/60.





                  Feel free to laugh at the muffler... ;)

                              my point exatcly, you can't even tell the difference. One of them is stock suspension and the other one is on M3 springs.
