I'd recommend the H&R Sport Springs which will give the car a 1.25" drop in the front and 1.5" drop in the rear. These will help fill in the gap and firm up the ride without being too aggressive for street use.

Either eibachs or H & Rs. You might as well upgrade to yellow Koni adjustables. GL

If your car already has the sport suspension, I wouldn't lower it at all. When you get much lower than sport, you start scraping the front spoiler and possibly doing damage to other parts as well. However, if you don't have sport, go with H&R as I believe they are the best aftermarket spring for BMW's.

What part number were the springs? I could have sworn the h&r webby claims a drop of 1 inch front and back?
Part number 29119-1 Bloody hell, and there I go digging up old threads.... Gotta love it

I've had them on for 3 years now. No problems what so ever. My front bumper is looking as good as it was 3 years ago

However if you're concerned about bottoming out on snow at 1" lower, you're already driving through snow that's too high regardless IMO.

if its just a 1-2 hour job while changing my wheels anyways that's fine. i'd rather raise it up for the winter to avoid having my bumper act as a snowplow...
