WANTED front msport mtech e92 suspention springs
hi im after a pair of someone's old front springs from an msport e92 as mine looks like the fronts have been changed for se springs because the car sits higher on the front to the back. Maybe someone has some kicking around after lowering their car so if your willing to sell them on I would be very grateful.

The front sits higher than the back on every coupe I have ever seen with original suspension.
Are you sure they are the wrong springs? |

If it's any help; before I replaced the springs on my E92 325 M sport, I measured the following dimensions at the front axle: From centre of BMW roundel to underside of wheel arch 365mm (offside) and 375mm (nearside). BTW the 10mm discrepancy is normal! If these measurements are 15mm larger, you probably don't have the sport springs. Cheers Dave Last edited by ALPINA2BMW; 08-08-2013 at 09:26 AM.. |

iv been looking at other e92 msports and it just seems to be that the front gap between the arch and the wheel is a lot bigger than the back so it must just be how they are. my Toyota celica and 350z had near on even gaps on front and back so that's whats made me think this is odd I guess.

Hi
This image of mine prior to lowering might give you an indication of the typical wheel gaps on a 325i M Sport. [IMG][/IMG] BTW H&R Sport springs lowered front by approx 23mm to following: [IMG][/IMG] [IMG][/IMG] Cheers Dave Quote:

The springs have a little sticker on them,
If its SE type springs they tag will read for example C5 and on Msport they're badged for example D6. SE always start with C(comfort) Msport always start with D(dynamic) |

Thanks guys I think I'm just going to get a set of lowering springs. I'm looking at 15 rear 25 front as the car scrapes on some bumps already so I don't want to go too low.
