: 89 325is (formerly with M3 springs)

First few weeks or months...? What happens then? Not looking for any drastic handling change or ride change. Just want to lower the car about 1" to 2" all around. Have to change struts/shocks anyway and thought might as well do the springs. Will probably add a set of M-Technic factory white 15X7 wheels so need to take that into consideration also. If I use the M3 springs should I use the M3 shocks? Is there a difference in the range of operation? I'll probably buy either KYB Gas-Adjusts or Boge shocks. Want to keep price down as much as possible.
