[QUOTE="jason, post: 710280, member: 182"] I have installed the H&R sport springs with Bilstein B8s. I will say unequivocally that my F30 is now a better car than when it left the factory. The first positive that hit me was the better turn in response and feel. The car does hardly squats or lift on acceleration / hard braking. As you would expect the car is no longer floaty and does not bounce as you pass over uneven roads and undulations which was a big complain from my passengers. My car runs on Mich PSS. This tire/sussy combo really shine during rempit sessions on the twisties, e.g. Genting via Route68 or Ulu Yam. The negatives - well its a lowered ride with firmer dampers, the ride is bound to be a little harsher than stock. Immediately after the install, I noticed every nook and cranny the tire goes over. One thing though, my passengers did not notice the harsher ride.... maybe my butt is more sensitive than others. I hardly notice it nowadays. Happy upgrading guys. Jason :D [/QUOTE]
