Had my wheels off today to wax them inside and out and noticed a broken rear spring....

Now I'm happy with the way the rear sits but would like to see a 10-15mm drop on the front.... So what are my options.???

Thanks

I broken rear spring must be like having a squint!
You could try these: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EIBACH-LOWERING-SPRINGS-PRO-KIT-BMW-M3-3-2-E46-2004-/310761349160 all down to personal preference :whistle:

Quality adjustable coilovers....or stick with BMW springs


Everything else is pants and you will get free entry to Cutters

No chance of me doing that, the only coilover experience I've had was KW V3's on my Focus RS. Tbh I love the way the CSL drives and I don't really want to go the coilover route.

The CSL springs are well beyond that of Eibach etc. only ones that maybe ok would be H&R, but the CSL springs are still better. No chance of the H&R ones cracking though!

I deal with Bilstein through work do they do anything worth having ?? They'd probably say yes but I'd rather have some 1st hand experience...
