Well that's a bit drastic, but the Races are a pretty drastic drop. They give a slight tuck in the rear and really stiffen up the ride quality. It is recommended to change out the shocks but they should last anywhere between 15-25k miles.

If you want something a little more subtle, go with the Sports or the Eibach Pro Kit.

H&R Race FTW, I had them on my both of my e46s and to me i think the drop is just fine and the rides not that much stiffer. I loved them and would defnality recommend them.
