I dunno. Its your choice just be sure you want what you get, because it cost more to want to change your mind down the road. Look at me, I didnt want to go too low but once I got comfortable driving like this I want to go lower. Now I have to buy a new suspension kit and sell my old one. I'm losing money

I'd say go with coilovers with the softest ride. Later on if you'd like to raise or lower your car you can with no worries.

Yup as a matter of fact there is another thread going on about this. I also have a brand new set of springs for sale in the black market too.

There is no best. It come down to what kind of drop and ride do you want.


Here is a useful thread..

https://acurazine.com/forums/car-talk-5/bmw-lovers-read-haaaaaaaaaaa-40499/#post457374

It compares the spring rates of all the suspension know at the time.

I currently have neuspeed sport springs and like them because they are not too soft and not too hard.

any reason why the front gap is preposterously large, while the back just looks like your standard "haven't lowered it yet" stance? That can't be natural.

might have to do with the sub box in the trunk, and also the fact that the car's on a slight incline.

What a frickkin' noob! I'm sorry to hear about your wheels!

My suggestion is Tanabe Coilovers, they're pretty well priced and are soft. Your car is lower in the rear due to the box and springs wouldn't help even it out.. reminds me of that song "Lean like a Cholo"...
