What kind of shocks you guys running with your cut springs?

[nickskater09]

my question is whats the ride wuality like when you cut off 3.5 coils, and did you cut the strut housing?

I have 4 off mine and the ride isn't bad. Very stiff but not bouncy as long as you have semi- good and not blown shocks.

ok dropped my turd today. will maby take an extra inch off the front tomorrow..

How many coils did you cut?

I cut 3.5 all around and couldn't be much happier. The ride is surprisingly decent and I'm pretty damn low.

are you running aftermarket shocks or stock? how long have you been riding on cut springs?

[kevinc]

eh, sleeves will probably raise the car... cut off 2 coils front, 2.5 coils rear. I cut off 4 on my e34, it was very low, too low for the softness of the springs

yes , i think so ,sleeves will probably raise the car... cut off 2 coils front, 2.5 coils rear. I cut off 4 on my e34, it was very low, too low for the softness of the springs

Wait...

[budski]

i cut my stock springs in half, a little more than half in the rear.

you will have to pull the springs out, and is best to roll the fenders with a fender roller. I've done it a few times with a baseball bat with various results

Thanks for the info guys,

My brother found some lowering springs for the e28, dropped it about 6/7 cm.
Not too low but it gets the job done pretty good, and got a hartge set eith 8,5 j and 225 tires that fit pretty snug now.

3.5 front, 2.5 rear. It's pretty low.
