i need to order some before 12 so i can get next day delivery.

i have a 320i and want it as low as posible. the lowest they do is 60mm. i was wondering tho if i got springs for a 316-318i and put them on mine would that make it a little bit lower as they are designed for a slighty lighter car?

daft question i know :roll:

Its an E30.

If you use springs from a lower model would this not make it handle wierd though?

iv just ordered some for a 320 but said excluding cabriolet (which mine is). sure itl be fine :)

80mm? where did you buy them? usually on e30s 60mm is seriously low, so im hoping itl be enough for me.

corsa/nova springs in the rear equate to around 80mm or so...

Boge do some mega low springs for the E36 so might be worth checking them out for the E30.
