Just put my H&R springs on.
Just got a chance to post some pics of my H&R drop springs with my 19x8.5 & 19x9.5 HP racing wheels. I was realy suprised on how the ride was even after runing lower profile tires and drop springs on a 19" rim. The clearnce is fine and the fit is perfect. Here are a couple of pics.

Nice, though I 'd prefer another wheel
I want to get a more solid ride. How do you like it. I have the 162s with ss. How much did you pay for these H& Rs? |

Looks nice!!! You did just springs, or shocks too?
Perfect drop... Exactly how much of a drop? If you don't mind me asking, how much were the wheels? I'm guessing the tires aren't run-flats?

Very nice.
Regarding the idea of having my car look unique vs. like every other 330i, well...I think I will prefer to look like every other 330i. I find security in that sort of--for lack of a better term--anonymity. I like stealth.

Hi Jerry,
I have a few questions for you, what springs did you put on the car? -3.5 cm or -5 cm? And did you have the OEM sport suspension before? How's the car handling after lowering? Stijn |

wow, unbelievable drop, that is perfect. I really really love what H&R puts out for BMWs, high quality, aesthetically pleasing stuff. DO you know which version of the H&R spring you got ? If you still have the box maybee look at the part number on the box. ? Or if you can peek between your spokes to look at the (probably red) springs and read the number off them ?

Nice looking car! What tires are you running? I heard there are no run-flats in 19 inch diameter. I'll bet you have a much lighter wheel/tire combo running conventional tires though. Even at 19 inches, the conventional tires have got to be a lot lighter than run-flats. Curious how the car feels over the choppy bumps...

wheel & tire $1850 springs $280 with shiping install and alingment $250 = $2380. And I knew I wanted 19" so I would still need to upgrade the 330 on that aspect anyway. |

No just the base suspension. The H&R drop was listed as 1.2 back and 1.3 front.
