they lower the ride height about a half inch. but i wouldn't use them on a 325 as there will be to much weight up front for those springs should be fine if you have a 4 banger.

how'd you figure that ??

b6s alpina used standard e30m3 springs upfront, the only difference being they are for an air con car
