Lowering springs for ride comfort

Hey guys,

I’ve just bought my first ever BMW which is a 335D. I promised myself I wouldn’t mod it and 2 weeks later I’m planning on modding it.

I’m very new on the European platform so my knowledge is pretty slim.

My plan with the car is to try keep the driving comfort as much as possible since it rides so beautifully stock.

My car is currently on stock m sport suspension that has been completely refreshed.

I’ve heard mixed reviews on H&R, some people say it drives like stock, some say it’s too stiff, some too bouncy. Could anyone with experience shine some light on this please?

Thanks 🙏

Ohlins Road and Track get my vote. Superb handling but NOT at the expense of ride comfort.
