HR springs

drmri · 07-12-2011, 07:14 PM

I have a 550i with DHP. I like the aggressive look of 1.4 inch drop so i am thinking about the HR springs. Can anyone tell me if they know of or have this combination and how is the ride comfort after the springs? i would really appreciate any help regarding this. Thanks.

I have a 550i M-sport with DHP. I tried the HR springs, and they were too low for my taste, and the ride was too bouncy especially in the front. I ended up swapping them out for the RD springs, and they are almost as low and they ride much, much better with the DHP although the normal and comfort modes with both springs feel "off balance" as far as the front feels a little too soft and the back being too stiff. In Sport mode, which I always use anyway, the suspension feels much better than stock.

If the RD price is too high, you could try the ACS. They're about half price of the RDs.
