Do all you guys get super offended this fast?
your car is low, not slammed. alot of us here we have been driving with frame rails and oil pans less than a half inch off the ground for years and that shit gets old FAST. you have no idea what this is like.
stop acting like you track it where coils are necessary, you drive it on the street just like the op and guess what his car is lower and more comfortable so......

I don't even know what you're point here is. Static gets fucking old. You've been riding "low" for a month. You have no idea the strain of riding static slammed everyday.
I'm one of the biggest static advocates around, but everyday I'm leaning more and more towards going air and that's because I actually know what it's like to roll hard on the daily grind day in and day out. If you're not going to be using the car for motorsport, I see nothing wrong with bags. The static vs air arguments used to be fun but it's getting stupid now. because people are taking it too seriously. Both are awesome, and both deserve respect. Setting up a truly proper air set up is harder. And rolling static low deserves respect too. Bringing 2x4s everywhere I go and not being able to pull into a handful of places, along with scraping into work with clients looking at me like I'm an idiot gets old though and there's no reason to **** on someone for opting out of that.
BTW, you're spring rate gets cut to about 50-60% the way these suspensions are designed as it puts extra leverage on it unlike a true coilover. This explains you're spring rates.
Now, I'm not as low as Ollie (yet), but I absolutely agree.
My car looks like shit from underneath because everythings scraped, dented and torn to shit. Riding low everyday really takes it's toll on the car. Going bags is not 'stupid' or something, it's the sensible decision if you're going to keep a car in good shape and for a long time. On my Touring it's not worth it anymore, seeing how busted it already is, but my next car will have bags for sure.
So GTFO and

^ That made me lol.
Other than that, this thread is gay.
Nice car OP, I've had the e30 itch for the past week and there's a gorgeous white one for sale 2 miles from my house, I drive past it everyday for work. I want it.
I also don't understand why people say bags are for pussies... unless you drive at a pussy height, then you're a pussy.
Mmmm... pussy.

Damn FunfGang. It's no fun if you don't get into a heated debate with us.Well props for taking everything lightly and not adding fuel to the fire like most would do. I used to **** bags too so I feel you but over time you'll grow to appreciate. You'd also be surprised how low some people roll on air but I'm with you on the fact that people rolling airred 2 feet off the ground suck
