coilover variant 1

also considering a combo of Eibach sportsystem and Eibach sway bars,curently i have H&R Race Cup Kit.I'm looking for anyone who has a compact with coilover suspension and can give me a review

Thank you

PS:i'm open to any other proposals for coilovers or suspension kit

Hi

I haven't got a compact, but i do run a Z3. fitted AP coilovers and polybushes etc to it last year.

made a massive difference, great quality and easy fitment.

handling is now spot on, accurate , great grip, well balanced and not to harsh on your fillings.

i hope this helps

ps i did also fit new drop links, wishbones and adjustable r/j from top mounts.

How about body roll? :)
H&R Cup Kit seems to have some body roll and i don't like it.Also the car sits quite low and this winter i've hit with the spoilers and floor of the car many times.This is another reason that i want coilovers.
i've attached picture with my car :)

later edit:the rear H&R springs seems to be softer than OEM and i don't like this .Also rear H&R springs are taller than OEM M teh !!
