lowering spring/shock combo
so i did some searches on what is available for my 01 e430... and ill i found was
h&f springs
vogtland springs
eibach springs
as for shocks i didt really find anything that would go with the lowered stance of the car. wat r guys running, also please mention all the option that arent listed here too. i want to lower my car, but im not sure which way to go. some advice or a finger toward the rite direction would be apreciated.
also do we need a camber kit or some sort?
thanks you

bilstein sports are best for lowered..or Konis.
Camber kit is recommended but not a must if you don't mind having tires flipped every so often. OR rotated if all of your tires are same size.

Tire wear
Excissive negative camber results in more than just poor tire wear.The real issue is in handling on the street.
Rotating the tires will not help that and that is the real issue camber links or bushing address.
Bilstein sports,eibach lowering springs,pads,camber bolts,camber links or kmac units bushings.
Search all the threads you can locate and read them. Save the money up and do it right the first time.
