33xi with 335i sport springs and shocks?

Hey guys, found a good deal on 335i sport springs and shocks. If i swap them out will this lower my car? Also, bc they are sport shocks, will it make the car stiffer?

You cant put on the shocks, but you can put on the springs. It should make it a bit lower and it will wear about your stock shocks quicker. Check the link in the bottom of my sig to see all the available xi parts.

Well it depends. If you want it a bit lower and stiffer, then yes add them. But its not the best solution. Get some eibach springs and the bilstein shocks, or a set of kw v1 coilovers. Or go with the springs but be prepared to change the struts faster and bmw will not pay for it.

Check my link here to see whats available.
