ive been trying to figure out what springs to get for me 328xi e90.. i wanted a nice drop in the front to get rid of the bmw rake but also wanted to use stok struts for as long as possible. i was choosing between the tein s tech or h&r race springs. even though the tein s tech would probably be better using the stock struts i ended up deciding on the h&r race due to having a nicer drop in the front. however, i could only find them listed saying they would fit an 06 330 e90.. i was wondering if all springs were the same for all non-m e90. heres the link- http://m.sparktecmotorsports.com/hr-...FUrl7AodiWkAPg

I have hr sport and they are low as shit. I would honestly be concerned about running the race spring. Especially if what you northerners say about your roads (potholes) is true.

The h&r sports will pretty much close the wheel gap. And you shouldn't get any rubbing from the wheel setup you have. If you pair them with the bilstien shocks you'll have a great setup!!

It's dark outside now but I will Post a pic of my car with the h&r sports in the morning!

The answer to this question is YES, if a spring will work on a 2006 E90, it will work on a 2011 E90 (excluding M3). In fact, the same H&R spring sets are sold for for all E9x, all years. The difference in weight between the coupe, sedan, convertible and wagon are so small that companies don't bother engineering springs for each model.

Also, if you want to use stock struts, you'd better go with the H&R sports, the race springs are so low, you'll definitely need new struts.

I bought new bumpstops too. The stock ones are going to be too fat and you will likely be riding on them all the time. Instead of trimming i bought the E36 M3 bumpstops, they are a better fit and will hold up better. Shorter and stiffer.
