2. With the kits you get, is it simply replace the OEM springs with the ones you brought? eg. H&R, bilisten, eibach...etc etc?
3. For cars without the sports package (eg. my car), will handling be improved EVEN BETTER than that the OEM spring? or theres much more needed be done? (eg. new strut bars)?
4. Does installation process differ, on SP/standard?
Big thanx to everyone! Read/Answering to my NOOB QS Cheers  |
well to the best of my knowledge...
1. the rear air suspension is lower with a special leveling mechanism that h&r provide or you can go to bmw dealer and lower it via the dis.
2. if you purchase springs you just trade out your oem for the aftermarket, the only brand i know of the top of my head is ac schnitzer which replace the shocks and spring.
3. i would think your car would be improve handling wise like lane changing and curve taking maneuver. the spring is stiffer and you lower the center of gravity in your car
4. same thing.
i hope this help correct me if im wrong on any of the items.
