H&R vs AC Schnitzer Springs for F36/32. Which would you buy?
Hey guys, looking towards buying lowering springs for my 428i M Sport Gran Coupe. now there are very few options for those of us with an F36, the only ones I am aware about are H&R and AC Schnitzer. I know AC schnitzer seems to be more on the conservative side but I heard that the ride is not affected as much with AC as opposed to H&R. I heard H&R springs are more "bouncy" but look much better... if you were in my boat, what brand would you go with?
AC advertises a 15mm drop for M-Sport Vehicles while H&R is about 25mm Price wise; H&R 240$ AC Schnitzer 300$ |

As you said. If you prefer a less lowered vehicle with OE suspension feel, go for AC. They work better with M-sport shocks
You will need to change shocks with the H&R springs and they give a stiffer and more planted ride. |

ACS for poorer road surface quality (such as we have to tolerate in the UK) and H&R for buttery smooth roads, as I understand you guys get to enjoy.
Any 'bounciness' which has been referred is caused by lack of rebound damping, on account of the firmer spring to which it is not tuned. You might be able to get the dampers retuned professionally to re-balance the ride. |
