Car needs new shocks, while i'm there i thought i may aswel replace the springs and lower the car by 30mm.
Came across these on ebay:

Wandered what you guys think of them, its very tempting with the price etc.
Originally i was going for bilstein b4's all round and apex 30mm springs.

They look a bit dodgy. Get bilstein shocks and eibach lowering springs. Can't go wrong.

They will probably be better than whatever old and knackered suspension is on the car at the moment, but for how long is anyones guess... Usually if you buy cheap shite, you end up buying twice!

True. If the car feels shit also think about renewing bushes first.

I thought the same, but it was just the initial price that was tempting!
Im thinking of getting these shocks:

With these springs:

The car is a 89 G-reg 325i Convertible. If anybody has any other links to parts etc. most welcome!
My shocks are shot and defo need replacing, but as mentioned earlier i thought i may aswell get my mechanic to replace the springs and lower by 30mm
