Springs...

My F30 is too high...so I want to get the H&R springs...but most people think that coilovers are better. How long does it take them to come out with coilovers? Anyone remember from back when the e90's came out?

If I'm just looking really for improved looks and not tracking, should I just get the springs?

I guess I could do other stuff first...tint, tune, etc.

You'll probably bet better served if you post this in the f30 section rather than the e90 section.

I think you probably didn't read all my post, or perhaps you just didn't understand it.

I understood what you were asking I just think you'll probably be better helped on the f30post.

To answer a few of your question:
I would say coilovers should be out with in 6-8 months, I can guarantee you the big name companies are working hard at developing suspension for f30's as the few that have them are most likely eager to start modding, and seeing how suspension is one of the big areas that people like to mod I would suspect you should see products out sooner than later.

Lowering springs will probably be available sooner than coilovers. This is were you have to decide if all the adjustments coils offer are worth the extra money and possible wait time. If you just looking to eliminate some wheel gap or just a simple worry free drop then yes I would say just go with lowering springs and then look into other mods you want to do.

Hope this helps.
