Out of curiosity, how do these cars do on Springs with OEM Shocks / Struts? Is it something that will need to be replaced real soon?

Stock shocks on H&R springs will do just fine & last for many many miles. I have not heard on this forum of any shocks failure cause by H&R springs.

Our cars come with sport suspension which can take a lot of abuse.. So don't worry about it. Best & cheapest mod ever in my opinion!

Nice, I just lowered my '13 E92 M3 on H&R springs!

I think I've seen you around town a few times, possibly also at PBIR for an event last year. Anyway, let me know if you'd like to pass by the office and check out some wheels!

I'm debating whether to get H&R springs or coilovers, to give the car a nice stance without sacrificing too much of the ride comfort. For those who have the springs, have you ever thought of switching to coilovers? I assume damping is better matched in a coilover setup vs. springs on stock struts? Anyone who has tried both?

Do you guys recommend an alignment after the spring install? I just ordered H&R's through the tirerack.com set to be in stock feb 14 and I'm going to do it myself.

Thought that was you!

Kris from Superior Auto Design is a great guy, love seeing the cars they work on! Let me know if you'd ever like to pass by the office, would love to work on a deal for the C63 AMG!

Also, let me know if you'd be interested to join the locals for some meets/events! We're always going around town to show off the rides and talk cars.
