Do you prefer H&R springs? Is there a lowering target in mind?

ACS springs are also available for F36 chassis.

I don't have a preference just see a lot of people on here using them. I want a decent drop for an aggressive look. Seen some people on here lower on h&r and it barely looks lowered lol

Depends, are you AWD? AWD you will see a way more aggressive drop compared to RWD since the car sits higher. Look up images on google, a lot of them are for F32 chassis but its the same suspension so you will get the same drops.

I am installing H&R super sport on AWD but just waiting for the snow to go away. If you wait a few months I can show the drop I get from them

Any concerns about the ride quality? Lowering stiffer springs with softer OEM shocks are not the best combination.

AWD is the xdrive version right? I thought I saw people complaining on here with x drive it doesn't drop as much. I have RWD

I'm not concerned about ride quality. Will swap out shocks in due time lol

Yes correct xDrive = AWD. The AWD is given taller springs as it is expected to be in a weather changing environment (snow). Since the H&R springs are the same for both cars you will see a bigger difference if you were AWD. It does go down a bit on RWD, but less noticeable.

It doesn't show compatibility on their website but it fits. I sold mine to a guy with an F36 because he wasn't satisfied with the drop on the sport springs. He loved it.

Yeah I was about to contact them to be sure because I didn't see it on their site either. Thanks
