Hi,

Looking for a set of H&R Sport Springs for an '08 550i. I'm in Maryland, if anyone is ready to sell, I'm ready to buy.

Thanks!

 

sent you a pm. are you only going to replace your springs? what about the shocks?

Might as well go ksport coilovers and get them from acute. Got h&r sport and thinking of switching to ksport.

 

How the ride?

 

The ride with the KSports is great, stiff but comfortable. It all depends on you and how you feel comfortable with the setup, they have 36 adjustments so you are bound to find one you like. Body roll - gone. Squat under acceleration - gone. Nose dive under hard braking - gone. Very happy with my KSports, they turned out great - especially for the price.

 

Well I was thinking of just going springs for now, but I guess I should wait a bit and splurge for the coilovers. I was just curious about how the ride was with just the H&R sport springs.

 

i believe john (pjinca) was bottoming out.

 

Pretty much, as my OEM shocks wore out (and they wear faster with lowering springs) the ride got worse and bouncier. Then they started bottoming out a lot because the stock shocks just couldn't take it. That's when I jumped on the KSports, they were about the same price if not less than say Bilsteins and H&R's

 

Yikes! I'm definitely going to go with the coilovers...but I've never even heard of KSports. Heard of pretty much everything else. Glad to know there are so many knowledgable members on this forum.

 

i have an 535xi, would I just be able to purchase the H&R sport springs or would I need shocks as well? thanks
