Swift Spec-R Springs

BIMMERPOST / Classifieds
Asking Price:
Sold

Item Interest
Swift Spec-R springs up for sale. Used on a daily driven e82 135i. No track use. I moved on to Koni based coilovers so these need a new home. These provide a mild approx. 1" drop on the front and rear. Ride quality is solid but not jarring. Great for livening the suspension. Shipping anywhere in continental USA included in $160 price.

If you want more or higher resolution pictures, let me know.

The spring rates are F 201/R 503 lbs/in.

Thanks,

Any idea if the 1" drop front and rear is compared to the stock sport suspension or the regular suspension? If it is based on the sport suspension, I am your buyer.

I am also having a hard time finding stock spring rates for the sport suspension. Does anyone know those?

Thanks,
Jesse

The drop is based off the sport suspension. I changed to these springs from the 2009 M-sport suspension. I am running larger tires but the attached pic was my result. The change to stiffer linear springs made the ride better, imo.

For stock M-sport spring rates, the information I have says: F 120/ R 350 lbs/in.

Thanks for the info. What were your wheel/tire specs for the attached picture, if you don't mind me asking?

Also, I am your buyer, so please message me a PayPal address and I will send you your funds.

Thanks,
Jesse
