Creative Autoworks Suspension GB!
As requested, We will host a suspension GB for the E90’s with the two of the best in the business H&R and KW. Call if you would like a price on H&R coilovers. The most popular spring in H&R's line-up, Sport Springs will lower your vehicle an average of 1.5 - 2 inches (depending upon the make and model of your vehicle) for a lower center of gravity, improved handling and a more aggressive appearance. Sport springs feature more control than that of the OE Sport spring, but is still comfortable for daily use. Sport springs are an excellent choice for street and occasional track use.

What are the spring rates of the sport springs compared to stock? i.e. are they 100 lbs stiffer or more, are the fronts stiffer than the rear, or are the front/rear the same rates? I'm guessing dropping over an inch will probably add about a half of degree of negative camber. In any case, stiffer springs and more negative camber will help the cornering a noticable difference.

Sport Springs do not lower the car as much and the spring rate is NOT as aggressive as the Race Springs. Quote:

Aggresive drop = aggresive looks, specially when mated with 19" or 20" wheels. Its mostly about the looks aka reducing the wheel gap.

Some drivers just like to feel the road a little but more, also feel that they can maneuver the car slightly better with an aggressive ride. |

H&R Race springs + runflats? Unless you drive exclusively on airport runways, pool tables, or gymnasium floors, OR only use your car for weekend track/autocross events, I HIGHLY recommend against this setup on your daily driver. If you do opt for it, be sure to order a kidney belt at the same time, you'll need it.
