I've been wanting those 60/40 springs but I missed the group buy. zubbie 10-22-2007, 09:04 AM Source for where you ordered your lowtec springs? I've been wanting those 60/40 springs but I missed the group buy. I bought them as part of the group buy...Mel Abrahams. Abrahams Motorsport. You will probably have to wait until the next group buy.....otherwise you are looking at importing them $$$$ shrike071 10-22-2007, 10:41 AM B&G springs (import from overseas...) and Bilstiens Jcbe34 10-22-2007, 11:15 AM Here's lowtec 60/40... Front is lower than it looks. I'll get better pictures when I get my front wheels on. It looks LOW in person (can't link pics from work so heres the thread) http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=855001 DannyH4 10-22-2007, 01:10 PM I have Bilstein with Eibach.

I think i am changing my mind quickly I have parallels on my e34 and they are directionals so i can't rotate them so if it eats the tire i have to buy new ones. I like the lowered look but for me i am keeping mine the way it is it would get extremely expensive with 265/40/18 in the rear and 225/35/18 in front. zubbie 10-22-2007, 05:35 PM I want to lower mine too, but after lowering a lexus gs300 and going thru tires like there is no tommorow.
