              Wrong color. I have them on my 318i, they were rather floaty.

                They are really soft. Regardless, those look to be in very poor condition. I got mine in mint condition for something like $75.

                  $75 dollar springs huh well im trading them for 170k stock 89i springs, what are stock spring worth, my guess is nothing?

                    About as much as trashed eibachs. You're probably just as well off cutting your springs - they are the same spring rate. Add a little spray paint and they will be better than the eibachs.
