Good to know the offsets before I put in an order for wheels. Love seeing the arches full and flush. I just need to decide on the four options before me. Thanks Will

Hi, I'm considering H&R springs to lower my F10. I noticed that it's part of your mode. Could you please share info on how is the ride and if you experience anything negative related to lowering with H&R. Thanks.

P.S. Your ride looks sick

I'll chime in on this one...

The H&R's are a good spring set. They provide one of the best looking drops as far as lowering springs go. The only complaint I have is that they are a bit bouncy but if you have the sport suspension you can control the dampening and make it slightly stiffer. And the cost of the spring set is decent. Also look into megan coilovers as they offer a good pricepoint.

When you talking about the best looking drop how many inches is it? I saw pictures of 2 inches lower and still looks ok. I don't want too low as well. The person who offeres them to me says H&R claims that the drop will be 1.2". Reviews very offen say that real drop is lower than they claim.

Also a question about suspension. By having M Sport does it necessarily mean I have sport suspension?

Thanks a lot.

I believe it is closer to a 2 inch drop, definitely lower than the ACS springs but even with me, i'm able to clear bumps and dips with no problem. And yes by you having m sport it does mean you have the DDC (dynamic damper control) aka msport suspension. See my attached image:

Chiming in on the H&R Springs...

I like them...the lowering is good, though I wouldnt mind it being a bit lower, but thats me... for most people it would be more than enough. The ride is good, though its a bit soft/bouncy for e, but like Brian mentioned if you have the DDC feature that stiffens up your suspension dampening when in Sport or Sport+ plus you will be fine.
