Hi there, I hope someone can help me? I have seen some lowering springs for an e30 325 and i am wondering if they will fit my 316.

I have asked TW166Y about it and he said you cant fit 316 springs to a 325 but he is unsure if it will work the other way round.

Any advise will be a great help.

Thanks.

I looked into this, and was told they wont work because the 325i is 6 cylinder whereas a 316i is 4 cylinder. Apparently this is too bigger change in weight to use the same springs, you may find the front end sits too high, but wait for other comments as i may be wrong! :mad:

Cheers mate, i only asked cos the lad who is selling them only wants Ԛ£25 for them, so i thought it would be worth the question.
