Anyone regret H&R race springs on their E92

The car looks great. I've had mine on for about 3-4 weeks... Just wanted to let you know that your car WILL go a little lower once the springs settle a little bit. Not a lot, but noticeable. I still think it's worth it, though.

Thanks. So far so good. I just wish the back was a bit higher but I guess can't be picky if I don't want to spend the $ for coilovers. The stock shocks have started to settle in too and the dampening has been much better lately. I'm guessing I've got about a year before I really need to replace the stock shocks.

nice, so when u replace the stock shocks how much wud that be, surely it wud add up to the price of coilovers in the first place?

Around $250 for the springs and another $750 for high quality adjustable shocks. That's $1000 which is around $500-$700 cheaper than coilovers with adjustable rebound so coilovers are defiantly more expensive.
