I have the DHP on my xdrive would anyone recommend or not recommend the HR springs?

We need to be cautious of how we pitch aftermarket springs to newbies.

Now what about those dinan springs with bump stops coming out huh. I think with the minimal drop they give and the bump stops might be way to go.

I am in the same position and would like to know the answer to this as well. Just can't stand the gap and need something as a stop gap (no pun intended) until a confirmed coil over set up is available for the xdrive. Will the H&R sports function well with the DHP (no issues or codes).

Car looks great. Does Turner have the beat price on these springs?

perhaps you drive a RDW model. With Xdrive models, there is very limited choice. M performance doesn't make suspension for Xdrive, Bilstein doesn't make shocks for Xdrive. Xdrive owners can only go with KW coilovers. However, maybe some people doesn't like the stiffness of coilovers so H&R spring is the only choice. I had Bilstein shocks with HR springs before on E92, it was great, too bad can't do same for Xdrive

I don't think anyone can truly disagree with the efficacy of a comprehensive, well designed and matched coil-over/spring-shock-combo versus just springs.

But that discussion is moot because there are simply no options whatsoever for F30 xDrive owners at the moment in the United States. Even the Dinan setup that seems to have been released at this point is not for xDrives.

So, xDrive owners appear to be going with springs to make the best of a bad situation.... which is likely what I will do myself.
