Re: Hey Bimmerhead....a question on your suspensio (archive)

Thanks for your reply. I agree with your comment on the road feel with the 18" wheels...I bought them 7 months ago and now am dying to lower her down to the tire level!

Springs will come in later this week-end...will be heading to the Kentucky Derby and won't be able to put them on until next week.

Take care. Salts

The Dinan Stage 1 is GREAT. Lowered it 30mm. and runs the highway like a dream. I just did 2 weekends at Summit Point Raceway in WVA. You will find that the most noticeable difference in "road feel" comes from the lower profile tires in the 18" wheels than from the shocks & springs. The Dinan set-up did improve the steering and I am very pleased.
Good luck.

Hey there...I see you on the board quite a bit and noticed in your last post that you mentioned you are running the Dinan Stage 1 Suspension with Michelin Pilot Sports on the 18" M-Parallels. I just recieved my Bilstien "HD" front struts and am waiting on the Dinan Springs for all four corners (I have the self leveling so I'm not going to mess with the rear struts).

My intent is to lower the car to improve the look of my M-Parallels and tighten up its cornering ability. Do you find that the Dinan springs stiffen up the car too much for every day driving. I will probably never take this car on the track (Can I do this at Road Atlanta?)but want to improve the handling.
