Looks good and thank you for posting the pic! Now I don't have to guess how my AW 340i would look lowered.

Thanks. yes they are the stock dampers, they are the M sport 19" Light Alloy Wheel Double-spoke Style442 M Orbit Grey with Mixed Perf. Tires

VividRacingII · 03-10-2016, 04:51 PM

They are LOW, but the car Looks great!!!

Labeef · 03-12-2016, 08:46 PM

looks like you have the track package. How do the dampers respond to the spring rates?

I ask, because most of the time if stock struts are retained, the ride is bouncy when lowering springs are installed.

Yes I do have the track package, very well!! they are the stock shocks and they perform excellent, there is absolutely no bounce what so ever, the drive feels great too. I could even say when driving on sport+ it stiffens up even more and handles great.

Thank you. It's not that low. I say its perfect.

Bee Pee · 03-14-2016, 11:19 AM

Looks nice but with such a large drop, its probably riding on the stock bump stops and stock damping is almost fully compressed hence little or no compression stroke left....

jjcools · 03-14-2016, 03:58 PM

Like the drop, looks nice and even without being too low... But yeah, will probably destroy the stock shocks faster.

Thank you. Before I got it all installed it was checked thru BMW dealer and they assured me that I would not have any issues as far as shocks or dampers, But they said if I dont feel comfortable as far as the ride goes I can upgrade the bump stops.

Thanks, I have the track package so the dealer said I will be fine with the springs I purchased and will not have any issues as far as shocks go. only time will tell what will happen,

Hmmmn- seems odd that super sport springs -with lower stance than sport springs -work OK with OE bumpstops and yet H&R have started selling shorter bump stops with their sport springs..
