Dinan F30 Springs Pricing

Why are the 335 springs $550 vs $500 for the 328?

Are they jacking up the price?

$550 for 335i has been the price since launch. Of course there shouldn't be a difference, but I guess 335i owners have more money and they assume 335i owners will pay the extra markup.

I've emailed Dinan in regards to the price difference between the two kits. Times must be tough if they've resulted in type of pricing scheme.

Called early adopters' pricing.. Like electronics or golf clubs or a number of other products. Quite common to price things higher at release dates especially I am sure they had tons of people asking.

If Dinan is doing it correctly, the springs between the 335 and 328 should indeed be different... However, the cost shouldn't be any different from a manufacturing point of view.

Anyone without dynamic shocks fit these springs mated with bilstein hd shocks?
