So if the e90 did not have sport pacakge.. what would the drop be? and would it make sense to get the RACE springs then? to achieve the same drop of a sport with HR?

I wouldn't recommend springs only, as the stock shock will not be strong enough, you'll likely get bouncier ride.

So i'm getting some 19inch wheels.. i want a nice drop look, but i got some bad brooklyn streets to deal with.. HR Race Springs give a 2.0 drop in front.. this would mean a 1.5 on my NONsport?

I also noticed how my car looked as I was approaching it from a starbucks the other day.. it looked good as is.. sometimes depending on how I park on the streets, 1inch lower should be enough, especially with 19inch shoes.

The nonsport would drop more than the sport because it starts higher. The end result is the same ride height between the sport and nonsport cars but the actual drop of a nonsport will be larger.

Coilovers are ideal.. but I dont think its that serious... like I'm just about looks for right now, althought I do drive hard sometimes.
