Thanks Brandon!

Since you're in this business, I feel it would be wise for me to get your opinion on some things I plan on doing.

I bought a luxury line because I wanted Saddle Brown plus I have a few mods planned out, so no point for the other lines.

Anyway, the question is I want to lower my car. Obviously I don't have the Sport Suspension because it's not an option here in Canada if you're going with luxury line. Would you advise me getting the H&R Sport Springs to lower the car? Should I get anything else?

I've spoken to a few auto shops and they were like the H&R Sport or Super Sport springs are fine as it is. I'm buying a $60K car, so I want to make sure everything I do is safe for me and the car and not cause any future problems. Is there another set you'd advise me getting instead of the H&R?

Please let me know. Thanks as always!

P.S. this is the first time I'm lowering a car!

I have never been in an F30 with H&R springs, but I have had them on my e92 and they seemed a little loose feeling on that car. I have also had Eibach springs which I liked a lot, that were on my e46 M3. Later I had KWV2 coilovers on my e92 which provided the best ride since it is matching the spring to a strut/shock that is designed for the shorter travel distance.

I am sure the H&R springs will be safe and fine on your F30, many people here have them and I have only heard good things about them. You will likely need an alignment done after the install since the drop is over 1" on the base model F30.

Really nice looking car (apart from the wheel gap then ).
I personally just wished that the grey was a tad lighter (more like Space grey) then I would have been all over it. I went with Melbourne instead on mine.
