Lowered Springs on SE shock (e92 330d)

Hi guys - I've been looking at some apex and eibach lowering springs for my e92 330d

Just wondering if there would be any issues with these springs fitted to standard SE shocks?

Also which springs would people recommend?

Thanks

Anyone lowered an SE without changing shocks?

I lowered my se on h&r sport springs with stock shocks

Was a little underdampened and the height was a little too low for me so retained SE shocks but paired them up with msport springs

Here's fella h&r are quite a drop though aren't they? So some eibach that drop 30mm or so could be fine

If you don't mind a bouncy ride and your shocks giving up after some use then go ahead.

Much better to get aftermarket dampers as well. Bilstein B4s and Eibach will work well together.
