You cannot drop the car 1-1.5 inches and expect the same ride quality.

HR springs and koni yellows is an awful combination IMO, i had it on my 335i. It rode like trash, bounced and over-reacted to any imperfection in the road. It made me almost car sick to drive the car.

1-1.5 inches is excessive lowering for this car, and will result in signficant ride quality and comfort sacrifices.

The only way you will have a shot to lower that much and still maintian a stock comfort level ride on poor quality roads is to get something like TCK D/A setup or ohlins that have shortened shocks and struts that are high quality enough to handle a higher spring rate and a lower amount of suspension travel.

You go cheap, you will make comprimises. Bottom line. Just telling you the truth.
