the race springs are a 2" drop all around (off of a non-sport) and because of the more dramatic drop, it is highly recommended that you go with aftermarket shocks from the beginning. most go with the sports (or eibach pro-kit) when going with springs because they complement the stock shocks more since the drop isnt too significant. some members in the past have gone with them, you can check for member vegastrashed he had them on his past 545.

For the money you will spend on springs + shocks, i would say spend a little more and get affordable coilovers. Its essentially the same thing with the added bonus of height adjustment.

not necessarily cuz a perfectly matched spring/shock combo will do better than coilovers

In any case, good luck with whatever decision you make!
