Coil overs will get you there. If you want airbags, you bought the wrong car...

You're going to have to do it...never seen anybody on here with airbags. Generally i've only seen that in the VW scene....never personally seen a bmw on bags.

Dude are you high? #1 sarcasm, #2 go to any BMW/euro meet or car show anywhere and post back. Wuste is next month - I suggest you go. I'm getting pretty sick of the 1series crowd. Just ignorant. This your guys' first BMW? Sigh...

Some of us actually try to avoid the trashier side of cars.

And this is my 3rd after a M3 and M5.

Since always? The stance, rice, DUB, and other non functional car mod communities have always represented the trashy aspect of cars.

Are you blatantly ignorant or just trolling? I'm not Asking for your opinion on rice or "DUB" (which is what? VW?). I'm asking if anyone with a 1 has bags. No where did I say I plan on putting VW badges on my car, run DUB wheels or add any form of "rice". If you feel the need to argue points you clearly have no knowledge on PM me and I'll take you to school.

Thanks

Almost the same here. Total BMW's, 8. E36 & E46 M3s. E30 SCCA toy S52 OBD1 conversion, E39 M5 are the ones of note. All are long gone. I'll pass on the weekend meets and trying to pretend im trying to "keep up with the Jones".
I prefer function far over rice and anything/anyone that came from the v-dub crowd. Anyone who has ever done a rear wide body conversion on a front wheel drive car is a tool. Period. A standard 1/2-1" drop is pretty good. Airbags=shitty rice burner double bounce ride.
Me personally, I currently have Dinan stage 1 suspension M3 28mm front sway bar, controls arms, guide rods and vorshlag camber plates up front. Out back I have the M3 subframe bushings, rear 23.6 sway bar, upper control arms/guide rods, HPA rear toe arms and a Dinan LSD. To finish it off I'm running Apex Arc 8s wrapped in PS2s with 245s up front and 265s out back.
I guess you can see why I think bags are retarded, no use on a car built for corners. Not made for meets in the parking lots, cruising gas stations and city streets at night....

Missed this post before. Quite a few like minded individuals around here and very little tolerance from garbage.
