New pics of my E90 with new mods.....H&R springs / Schnitzer Type III wheels

becks · 11-12-2005, 04:22 PM

Hi guys,

So here are some pics of my E90 330i with new mods:

- Tinted windows 35% shade...
- H&R springs...

Car handles a bit tighter but ride stiffness has barely increased.

Looking awesome! Car looks so much better dropped on springs

YYimports · 11-12-2005, 04:29 PM

Those wheels look perfect on your car! Great job.

SocalTy · 11-12-2005, 04:34 PM

Holy Sweet ass alpine white!!

Love the drop on the H&R, just a little too much of a drop for where im headed (nyc).

What you got planned for shocks cuz im sure you're going to need them after awhile. But good job so far mang!

"Car handles a bit tighter but ride stiffness has barely increased."

Yes, that is exactly what I felt with my H&R sport spring. I think handling definitely improved.

kt157 · 11-12-2005, 05:19 PM

looks awsome!!!
how much is the drop?

06alpine325icm · 11-12-2005, 05:46 PM

hows the camber wear?

becks · 11-12-2005, 05:51 PM

drop is approx .75" with the sport package.

so far there is no abnormal camber wear on the tires..

EVO_S4 · 11-12-2005, 08:08 PM

everything looks good except for the ACS emblem in the front

UCSBMW · 11-12-2005, 08:18 PM

how much did it cost for the springs and installation? car looks hard...

Mark Chen · 11-12-2005, 08:55 PM

What a nice ride~~~

Mark · 11-13-2005, 09:29 AM

awesome ! The H&Rs seem to give just the right drop for the E90 on 19"...

scottz5 · 11-13-2005, 09:44 AM

I like it a lot, I may put the CF splitters on my AW since i just hit a curb and fed up my bumper!

Jason · 11-13-2005, 07:38 PM

Some more pics of beck's kick-ass ride.

Jay_328 · 11-13-2005, 08:06 PM

Looks good, but am I alone in not really feeling those wheels?

is the ride bouncy at all? like over uneven surfaces? i hate springs that make the ride "bouncy" especially driving over a small dip right before taking a fast turn! not fun

E90-4life · 11-13-2005, 08:12 PM

This is honestly the best looking fixed up E90 I've seen yet, it's not too incredibly flashy, strikes a nice balance. Nice job becks!!!!

E90-4life · 11-13-2005, 08:15 PM

This car is really orgasmic, I imagine you got chicks look'n you up every left and every right!

becks · 11-13-2005, 09:08 PM

The H&R springs actually improve the overall handling of my E90..
There is no suspension bounce or float like slammin a Civic on worn out weak oem struts...

I may go to coilovers if in the future the shocks wear out or the ride starts to degrade..but for now I am very happy with the overall handling..

longtran · 11-13-2005, 10:12 PM

honestly i am not a fan of acs but your car looks good.
