Keep H&R?

I purchased my CPO '14 F30 this past Nov and quickly purchased my first mod, H&R Sport Springs (not installed yet). I just recently noticed that my car has the MP Suspension (Code 0704 on orig build sheet). Will I still get the expected drop from the H&R Sports or should I just leave the car as is and sell the H&R's? I'm rolling on OEM 19" and plan to replace with VMR or TSW.

MP suspension will drop 10mm compares to MS suspension and reduced by20mm compared to Normal suspension. The H&R will drop 33mm front and 17mm rear with sport suspension. and drop 38mm front and 25mm rear w/o sport suspension.

Thank you. I actually have the M Sport Suspension (0704), not M Performance as I originally stated. According to H&R, I can expect -1.3 F and -.7 R.

It depends what are you looking for.

H&R sport -- Big drop, harsh drive, struts eventually will fail

Dinan -- lest drop, but front seems lower that rear and still soft ride.

MPS -- more $$$, less drop that the other 2 but stiffer.

H&R sport < Dinan spring < MPS

I have my MPS install tomorrow. There is a lot of threads about suspension and people going from dinan to MPS.
