Hello, I'm interested in these, I can't send a PM for some reason (to new of an account??). My question is this, I have a S52 swapped TI, I also have all of the front suspension and brakes from a 96 7 up M3. Would these be a good match for that? Too low/high?? Thanks, Gerry

Hi Gerry, I would go with Z3 6cyl or 323Ti Rear springs. I felt these were a little to soft with the additional power

Thanks Zek, would you go with lowering springs or stock height on either of those options?

I would go with a slight drop, but living in Michigan I can't be too low. Currently I'm on stock BMW M Roadster Springs.

You could get a coilover perch to adjust rear height as well on whichever spring you like. I am using Condor's spring pads.

You can also look for rear 6cyl or higher lb e30 springs for a coilover system. Some places will sell you just the rears. Might be easier to find
