Be careful as i got a kit (for my 318i) from a 325i before and the front shocks did'nt fit, they were too big to go in the struts. I was able to fit the front springs and the rest of the kit (same lowering size) but the front springs sat the front a little higher to handle the wait of a 325i engine. Not sure but worth the investigation before money spent.

would have thought the springs would be too stiff for the lighter 4cyldr and may sit a bit higher than you want, unless they are adjustable in which case i'll get me coat.
