h&r race springs anyone? Just a quick question to see if anyone is running H&R race springs on a daily driver, what shocks they are running, and if they have any pics because I am considering getting them ... also if anyone is running them with the stock sport shocks how long they lasted and also suggestions/comments on camber kits. Thanks |

The reason I am curious about those specific springs is because they lower ti's 2.2 in. in the front and 1.2 in. in the rear... just wondering peoples experience with that drop. Thanks for the info. |
also curious about how much total you paid for install, shocks, and springs. I found the springs for 220 on understeer.com which is a great deal not sure about how much for install in shocks though .... bmw dealership do it for you or was it do it yourself? |

I have racing dynmics springs but I did it with a friend of mine. As long as you have a spring compressor and a jack you should be ok. We kind of cheated b/c he's a mechanic at a hinda dealership so we did it in his bay. The guy I got them from, however, said that he did them in his drive way. The backs are pretty easy b/c all you have to do is get like a 200 lb friend to stand on the hub and you can yank the springs right out. The fronts took a bit longer though. I guess the only thing really holding you back would be a spring compressor but I'll bet you could find one to use (maybe at a garage or something). |
i have the H&R springs with blistein HD i love this set up so much is a nice firm ride i bought the H&r spring for about the same price but the OEM shocks didnt last that long like 3months and so did the bailjoints buy the M3 lowercontrol arm e36 or e30 e30 are cheaper and will fit and work just the same. i also changed the stock lower control bushing with derlin offset from tunermotorsport.com paid $100 all the work i did my self if you like i can sell you a lower control arm with the offset bushing and bushing mount heres a link you should check it out http://community.webshots.com/user/mischiefteck |
I'm running an H&R race oem m-tech sport shock setup. My shocks need to be replaced in a major way (they are still the 1996 factory oem ones!!), but I got about 60,000Kms (approx 37,000 miles) while running the H&R's and I’ve got no complaints...Ride quality has been 'decent' overall, tire-wear due to neg-camber issues has increased, so rotation is a must. Here’s a pic to help you in your decision: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v5..._2261-edit.jpg |
