Thanks for the response. Hmm...interesting idea...I have the emailed invoice from bimmerworld, which clearly references the 318ti. Of course, this is not to say that a mistake could not have been made...

The springs, and the box they came in, are at the shop...so I can't check right now. I'll surely do that on Monday (I presume the box and/or springs have some product number labeling).

Assuming it's the correct part, my thinking is to have the shop put in a Z3M 9mm front spring pad, which would bring the front up just a bit.

Thanks!
