It's a bit aggressive, I would recommend sticking with the 15/12mm to be on the safe side.
Ok so 15f/12r ? Or the other way? I thought you guys put 15r on that blue m4.

From what I understand the white M4 was dropped with H&R Sport Springs for the F8X.
The YMB M4 was dropped with H&R Sport Springs for the F32 435 which is why its not as low.

according to this thread at least: http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho...0&postcount=50
The ymb car above is mine; it is on Sport springs for the 435i which have a more subtle drop than the M4 springs. It's PERFECT IMO and it rides factory.

Are these the H&R Sport Springs specific to the M3/M4? I'm just wondering because I'm about to purchase mine and I love that drop. Looks great!

There are two different springs from h and r. The m4 specific sport springs and the 435 super sports. They both drop the car the same amount from the front but the rear stay a bit higher on the 435. If I'm incorrect I'm sure someone will chime in but that's what I've gathered from
Reading theses forums. Also if you read the h and r website details it states what I just mentioned. I'll be doing the 435 springs. I like the rake that's achieved with those.

I need to correct you before more confusion spreads.

There are 3 springs by H&R:

435 sport: most mild drop
M4 specific: same front drop as 435 sport, but rear sits 1/4" lower
435 super sport: lowest drop of the 3 options

Thanks for the correction. I wasn't aware of the third option. So
I'm assuming
They'll come out with a super sport set specific for the m4?

Yes, it's much too low in the rear.

Tom,

Are the 335i Sport springs the same as the 435i Sport springs (..in terms of front/rear drop rate; it looks like it based on the part number 28878-2)? If so, I should just be able to use my 335i springs on the M4, right? I prefer the rear drop of the 335i/435i springs more than the M3/M4 specific springs. I have an appointment to bring my car in Friday to have the AWRON installed, along with springs, spacers and IND parts.

28878-2 shares both F30/F32 applications, they can be used.
