316 318 stuts (lowering)

[Stewie30]

I really want to lower my 316. found some springs but I really need some sorter shocks anyone know where I can get some? seems so much harder cause of the 45mm struts! Or am I better off just converting to 51mm struts??? Also will 60mm on the front be to much of a drop on for the m40 lump (sump clearance)?

60mm fronts and you will more than likely smash the sump off it if, however if you do still want it that low just go careful, what about b6 or b8 bilsteins im sure theyre shorter have a search about for those, on second thoughts if you want it double low and therefore arent fussed about ride quality why dont you just buy some hot tuning coilovers or something of the like theyre about 200 quid??

i've got some 51mm struts with lowering springs fitted unsure of drop though but will be either -40mm or -60mm . £100 + courier
