E92 Suspension advice - Update

[Anto]

Hi All,

I have a 2007 330iSE coupe that desperately needs to sit a bit lower that it does right now (especially at the front...). What's the general advice on the most appropriate way to achieve this? Cheap lowering springs from H&R/Eibach etc., full on coil-overs or some kind of official m-sport upgrade from BMW...? Would also appreciate suggestions of the best place to buy from that would provide a drive in/drive out fitment service. Car is currently on staggered 17's but when tyres are needed I will look to go up to 18's.

Thanks in advance.

Hi anto welcome to the site I'd personally recommends an eibach pro kit or sportline if you want it lower again but you would need sport shocks for that route

This e92 on 18's has been fitted with the pro kit and looks spot on imo

Our site sponsor alloy wheels.ie would be able to supply and fit them for you they are based in blanchardstown

Hi Gar,

So the Eibach pro kit springs will work OK with the stock dampers...? That stance is exactly what I'm looking for .

Currently looks like this

all lowering springs are made to work with original cars shocks
coiloves are different story

i had H&R on my SE E92 , think they are better as eibch and has more options for height ,front and back separate

all depends on mileage as well,might be time to upgrade or renew the shocks

Yep as valdas mentions above pro kit will work fine with stock dampers for a small outlay they will transform the car handling wise and aesthetically set of wheels then and your sorted

Nice colour by the way a few little tweeks will have it looking tip top in no time

That also looks pretty much perfect . Are they 18's though or 19's...?
