The springs will fit.
The rear dampers will fit.
The front damper will not Fit.

They are not much good to you.

I am running E30 M3 front shocks in my 325i legs :)

The 325i legs are wider than the legs fitted to the 320 etc

Hence they can take the bigger shockers

The E30 M3 Bilstiens have a 4cm diameter piston :cool:
