Hello all, car is off the road at the minute so thought I would take this opportunity to treat it to some new suspension goodies. Thought I should put it to the masses on what is considered to be the optimum setup. I was looking into getting a basic coilover kit for a 40 - 60mm? (not sure what is best) drop all round will be running standard 15inch bbs wheels on tech2 325i sport. Was considering changing all the anti roll bars and rubbers too? Any guidance on what would be best combo for all the above would be appreciated? I dont drive the car hard all the time so aesthetic is main aim but dont want to detract from the cars already good suspension for the sake of lowering it a couple of inches so not sure where to go with this??
ta
suspension setup please?

A coilover kit will offer you more flexibility over a fixed spring ie 40mm or 60mm a coilover will mean if you want a 39mm drop you can have.
Make sure you get the spring rates and damping correct or you will either be bashing your teeth out or bouncing down the road
The kit we offer is specifically designed for a more road biased car http://www.e30zone.net/modules.php?name ... c&t=145376
Bushes, if they have gone then they will make a huge difference to the handling, on a road car i'd stick to rubber
Drop me a PM if I can be any more help
