Lowering springs are the most cost effective way to improve your BMW's handling. They lower the center of gravity of your vehicle, reduce body roll, and give your car a more aggressive stance. We recommend pairing lowering springs with Koni or Bilstein dampers, especially if your stock dampers have a lot of miles on them.
Using a linear design (similar to OEM) with unique spring rates, Emmanuele Design's lowering springs are properly matched to the factory dampers, ensuring a ride quality that is slightly stiffer than stock, but predictable in nature. A progressive spring will typically be softer at light loads, then dramatically stiffen as compression increases. This makes it very hard to match dampening, and creates the bouncy feeling over light bumps. The linear design of these springs have a consistent rate as the spring sees higher load. On light bumps, it will allow the chassis to follow the road well (minimizing the bouncy feeling), while under heavy compression it will stiffen to prevent bottoming out. In our experience, this creates a much better overall ride quality. Compatible with adaptive suspension. Lowering of 1.3" front and .3" rear.
