The coilovers are still settling and are getting less bouncy for sure.
Here's a picture of my car with them installed but still not adjusted to how I want them (The front up 1/4 of an inch and the back lowered to the same height). Still waiting a bit before I adjust them then align the car.

Will update everyone after I get the car aligned and adjusted to how I want them.

bmwtechray · 07-19-2012, 08:45 PM

will it be less bouncy if u were to only drop the car, say an inch from factory? or is it the same no matter how high or how low u go??

These will fit 07 e92? What is the spring rate on these?

Yes and I'm not sure, sorry.

I also have lowered the coilovers to where I want them and have gotten the car
aligned. Here's a pic

Yeah but you can remove the top piece completely to go lower if you want

bigbro6785 · 08-20-2012, 10:12 AM

How do these ride compared to stock now that they aren't as bouncy?

bmwtechray · 08-22-2012, 12:04 AM

I was really interested in these but went with kw v2 instead because of the bouncy comment

That is what's keeping me from giving these a shot as well. Don't want to lose comfort. I'll probably go with koni/h&r or st instead.

CAN THESE COILOVERS WORK ON A 09 E90 335i XDRIVE ?

Redrkt503 · 09-24-2012, 03:44 PM

How long did shipping take ? I'm about to order and was curious

Simple5 · 09-24-2012, 11:48 PM

Where can these be had. Can't find them anywhere.

MrRager · 09-30-2012, 10:06 PM

With that rear being that high i might as well get kws

SPGspeed · 01-17-2013, 02:56 PM

These arent listed anymore. Call Raceland UK and they may be able to send you a set.. Ride is not bouncy at all after about 5000 miles. when they are cold they make some noise but they are fine. Next time I will deff go with the ST coilovers. Racelands are a good fix for blown shocks on a budget. I will never put lowering springs on my car with stock shocks again.
