there are no 2002 people here. they are all at http://bmw2002faq.com (http://www.bmw2002faq.com)

but you might want to match the springs with the shocks. If you install new stiffer springs and keep old shocks, the shocks won;t last too long.

I have the Ireland stage II springs and they are great. It lowered the car about 1-1.5". I too recommend you get new shocks to match. I have the Bilstein sports, it is a good setup. Take Steve's advise and check out the 02 site, lots of good info and cool people.

Cheers,
Joe
