what coils are you using at the moment? my E46 is 330i M-Sport, not too sure about the coils though. i might be looking for a lowered springs though.

I am currently on stock original non-sport coils. If yours is original M-Sport, it should come with original M-tech/M-Sport springs and shocks (if previous owner never replaced 'em with something else). BMW M-tech/M-sport coils does lower the ride but not as much as the Eibach/H&R. If you are looking to part with yours to upgrade to something else, please do let me know bro. Thanks! :)

nice! thanks for the lesson bro. no wonder it's a little low and i thought it's the sagging shock absorbers causing the low stance hehe.
 
I tumpang .... If anyone got a pair of FRONT E46 318 (N42/N46) M Sport spring please advice me ya. Am looking for one to proof someone that BMW Sport-Setting and M Sport are the same :)

bro wingzee, why go for m-sport and not eibach? too low?

Yeap Eibach can be too low while H&R can be too harsh. M-tech springs are more "balanced". :)

hey bro, i just got my stock BILSTEIN installed yesterday and coupled it with the M-Sport springs, the front arches can accommodate 2 and half fingers. i hope it's not set in yet and perhaps it will go lower once set in.
 
Actually the E46 MSport springs are a bit on the harsh side. Opt for H&R for a better ride/handling compromise.

Which model of Bilstein? May need to let the shocks settle themselves first. Gaps should be about 1.5 to 2 fingers for front while about 1 for rear.
 
Bilstein B8 is cost-effective replacement for MSport shocks. Rebound/damping feels almost similar to ori.
 
I'll keep this in mind when i have to replace my m-sport sachs! Thanks bro Mizhan for the tips.

Or maybe B6? A lot with B8 have complained about harsh rides. Especially those in H&R springs.

Anyway, will be replacing my shocks this week. Hopefully can find a M-tech springs in time. :)

perhaps bro. because when i changed my AUDI S-Line springs to H&R, it was lowered by 40mm and it is so much more comfortable! i myself was quite stunned by that fact! perhaps i should try the H&R for the 330 as well.

I have a set of E46 M3 Springs from my M if that what are you looking for?

I'm not sure if yours shares the same P/N as the M-tech springs for non-M cars.
 
Bro, nanti bagi test ride in the titan abs + msport springs! hehe
