Newbie Post

hey guys super newbie post here, so i got my first car a year ago (2010 black 328i 4dr sedan w/ 30k miles) and i finally put some wheels on it, i am now starting to look into the suspension area and i am so confused... i want to do the whole accuair set up but i am lost on which product i would have to buy, also are the H&R sports springs a good alternative for cheaper?

http://www.accuair.com/late-model/products/vehicle-kits <- is what i want but it is really expensive, is it worth it? is air suspension reliable? HELPP!!!!!

P.S please suggest any other mods you guys have in mind im a complete beginner

DAMN that's a pricey setup for suspension! Personally if you want something good get either KWV1 coilovers which are height adjustable there are Eibach or H&R sport springs that give you a 1.5 f and 1.2 rear drop it all depends on how low you wanna go.
here is a little intro on suspension for newbies
Black out kidney grills, spacers, intake or filter, exhaust and upgraded Halos would be a nice first upgrade.

For a 328, it would definitely be unique to go on air. It will also cost you a pretty penny, something like $5000 last I checked on a complete Accuair system (that's e-level air management with touchpad, full vehicle struts and shocks, plus install).

Wheels look great on your car. Welcome.

Do you have your front wheels set up with negative camber?
