Arrow H&R springs!

I just got a set of H&R Sport Springs installed. This is one of the best mods for the money. I wish I had installed springs on my M3///

Awesome bro .. What did the lower kit add to your driving ? Now is the car hard to drive or its normal as before or became more controlable ?

Thanks , and enjoy your ride

It really does make the car look much better aesthetically, imo. May want to look into rear lower control arms to get it back to stock camber. Otherwise u will wear the inside of ur rears quicker.

Congrats Fugazi, I got mine installed as well 2 weeks ago with TORQUE SOLUTION Rear Toe Links. In regular mode (non sport) I find the ride a little more bouncy than stock but in sport mode it's fantastic, I love it!

Nice ride height; no problems what so ever with the PASM? I am scared to do coil overs for all the horror stories I hear. Is there a way to put better springs on the car and keep stock ride height?

Yes, Eibach & GMG both make less aggressive springs. No problems with PASM Coil overs is "OVER" kill for a street DD.

Did you think about changing the shocks also, or do you feel like after driving for a while you should change the shocks??
