H&R Releases Lowering Springs for F30 328i and 335i
BIMMERPOST NEWS H&R Releases Lowering Springs for F30 328i and 335i With the 3 series traditionally having the largest aftermarket support of any BMW model, it usually doesn't take long for the first aftermarket parts to become available. And one of the first parts are usually suspension components. H&R has now released its F30 springs application for the 2012 328i and 335i sedan. The lowering springs come in two varieties -- Sport Spring and Super Sport Spring, with the latter being a more aggressive lowering. The H&R Sport Springs (Part #28878-2) lower the F30 by 1.2" front and 1.2" rear. The H&R Super Sport Springs (Part #28877-2) lower the F30 by 1.75" front and 1.6" rear. Retail MSRP is $389.00 for both sets. H&R also makes a whole catalog of wheel spacers for the F30 and BMWs, in many sizes - 6mm, 10mm, 20mm, 24mm, 26mm, 30mm, 40mm, 50mm, 60mm. Here is a preview image by H&R of their F30 lowering springs (F30 lowered on Breyton GTS wheels). |

Agreed, but this is just a "preview image" so I can cut them some slack.

You're going to want to match them with some dampers if you do that. Otherwise you'll probably (definitely) wear out your dampers prematurely.

AND install is never that cheap, so factor that into the cost as well.

I am little confused about someone who has a 650i, but cannot afford a $1300 mod...

On a 3series though depending on your location it shouldn't cost more then $350-450 to install. Well worth the price when you add dampers(shocks) which are about $600. To the above guy, just get a pro kit of sprins & shocks, approx. $800-900 and the install and you'll have a sexy lowered nimble machine. Well worth it IMO. |
