I just purchased H&R sport springs for my 335i w/ DHP. Is there anything else i should be aware of for this setup? tips? I'm having a local shop do it for me.

I'm planning to have the Shockware tune later down the road.

Does that apply to any aftermarket springs with OEM shocks? And should you just replace the rears? I'm seriously considering ACS springs for my edc 340xi (will get shockware as well) and am trying to figure out what to do with the bumpstops to avoid premature wear on the OEM edc shocks. If you can direct me to more info on this I'd appreciate it. ACS (Lorcan) says the stock bumpstops are fine for whatever that's worth.

Either cut down the bumpstops or search for the thread where someone figured out part numbers that were comparable to the Dinan bumpstop kit.

Not required but it's a ride quality issue as you do t want the bumpstops engaged at or near static ride height.

Does not matter if factory dampers or aftermarket. Bumpstop length should be matched to spring rate and length.

As noted above its a ride quality issue as well as to avoid the "crash" of bottoming out a damper or coil binding a spring. Will not extend damper life.

I would be inclined to fit shorter bumpstops for shorter springs. If wanting OEM then part numbers for MP suspension are 33502411196
