H&R Springs which Dampers?

[mikeyboy]

i need some advice from thos who have got H&R 35mm springs and I seek advice on what dampers are best 2 go with them?

I am considering Bilstein B8 sprintline dampers?

has any one tried this setup?

i did search the forum but with over 700 results its quicker to post a new thread!

I WOULD USE H+R shocks after all they are designed to go with the springs I have them on my 325 and as an overall setup they are better than the Bilstein/boge shocks i have had on these cars in the past.

H&R 35mm springs work very well with Bilstein B8's.

Demlotcrew, Simon13 and myself are one of the many who have tried this combo and been very happy with it.

+1 to confirm that H&R 35 and B8's are a great combo! Handles well and only a little stiff at the front for low speed irregular roads.

How do the H&R 35 and B8 compare to the standard MTech Sport setup?

[M5pilot]

Firmer and more taut.

Oh!
Some other people work late...

I recently had the H&R cup kit fitted to a 325 cab and am not very happy with the ride. The H&R dampers give very springy —a or jiggly as Ant described it —a ride. As you drive even a straight road you seem to chop and bounce over the ridges and potholes in an unnaturally springy way.

I'm interested also in the experience of others as I want to change the dampers to something which gives a "deader" ride. In other respects the handling is great - corners very flat.
