H&R sports + Koni Yelllows Combo :: E93

Hey fellas..

I dropped my car using the H&R sports and the ride is a little bit bouncy. If i run the Koni Yellow, would the height be different?

I mean I'm about to try on some thicker suspension pads to raise the car a little bit from the rear but i'm afraid the car height would change if i run the shocks!!

any ideas ???

this is how low my car became with the H&Rs..

Shocks will typically not raise the car and if anything, lower it as they are designed to work with the shorter travel of aftermarket springs. With that said, the Konis should not have any effect on ride height, that is largely determined by your spring setup.

That drop seems a bit low for the H&R Sports. Are you sure you received the sport springs and did you get the ones made for the heavier E93?

I'm getting the shocks to improve the ride quality but i was just curious if the height would change.. and yeah, those are not designed to fit the E93 per say. These are E90 ones, which do fit E93s and this is what i got when i checked H&R's website..

Thanks man.. I don't think I'd be changing the suspension pads after all if that's the case
