    You should upgrade to the 51mm front struts off any 325e or 325i in the front

      I would recommend this, but you can get Bilstein sports in the 45mm application.

          if you dotn care about the struts you have just cut your springs until you get actual lowering springs

              What makes the larger shocks an upgrade? I wouldn't call adding weight an upgrade. If you're not doing an engine swap any time soon just buy the 45mm shocks BMW designed your car for.

              On the other hand, I have a set of bilstein sports and H&R sports meant for a six cylinder car on my 85 318i and they still lowered the car a little bit, but not as much as most people would be looking for. I had them laying around and the suspension was shot on my car so I gave it a go. Seems fine to me.

                I have a set of used Bilstein sports for the 45mm strut housing!

                $120 takes them, located near Tacoma. PM me for my number

                  I am going to be getting some springs from Wschnitz and possibly Bilsteins from Dirtsquirt, thanks for the help guys.
