I would like to offer some feedback on Joe's spring kit.
Had them for approx two weeks now. The purchase was a bit of a gamble for me but now I am generally happy and impressed.
My biggest criticism of our cars has always been the ride quality- the lack of it. So therefore I ,although having owned my coop for nearly ten years, didn't want to make the ride even worse by fitting lowering springs. That's what I thought.
My car is already Bilstein equipped. It now rides much better than with the standard springs- firmer- yes but in a far more controlled way. A lot less crashy feeling, more rounded feel. Obviously handling is sharper and it looks great. The coop just looks so much better lowered !
All in all thanks very much Joe.

Sean

Enjoying Coop ownership, second time round . Also enjoying RWD action in a thundering V8 E90 M3.

+1 I agree with all the above! I haven't got billys on mine yet but the ride still isn't half bad on standards thumb
