bmw e36 rear springs on a e30

[aarc]

Hi all im just settin the height on my e30 I was wondering would the coilovers from a e36 fit a e30 they r both coupes thanks in advance

I believe they will physically fit, yes. However E36 springs and dampers are both longer than E30 ones so they will raise your ride height. Also, may have problems with damper travel - it”˜ll be almost fully compressed most of the time on an E30.

Damping rates and spring rates will be the other issue, too high and too hard for the e30 due to the extra mass of the e36.
