    Glad you shared your first time doing it! A lot of people don't and it makes it a bit hard to understand if they already know what to do

    Great job, but you guys should be using jack stands for safety..

    Just installed Eibach 1 inch lower Pro Sport Kit and Dinan toe links, then M3 suspension alignment...on a 335i... night and day difference in stability, acceleration, braking, curves and quieter too while being firmer.

      acceleration, what are you talking about?

    • @matreyia
      @matreyia 4 месяца назад

      @@grant6363 improved acceleration due to less squatting from previously weaker suspension components. are you under the impression acceleration can only be improved with power mods?

    Are those the H&R sport springs? And what size are your wheels

    • @justinbuice

      Yeah these are the sport springs. they are 18x8 in the front and 18x10 rear

    You should paint the front part of your brake rotors black as they rust straight away.

      +George Austers i painted them a few months after this video. I have a video on it ☺️

    • @justinbuice

      it took a while because it was our first time but I could probably do it in half the time now!

  • @matreyia
    @matreyia 3 года назад

    I got the HR for my e46 330ci but they sucked and made the car less stable and too bouncy vs. the stock shocks. I then switched to Eibach Pro Kit and all is better. Man, I should have stayed with eibach springs since I had them before on my e93..but I wanted to see what others had to offer. Big mistake.

  • @edwardchou12
    @edwardchou12 7 лет назад +1

    Thanks for the nice video! I see you take the whole front strut assembly out from the wheel well. Did you encounter any difficulty? I'm going to replace the front strut for my E92 335xi and find your video very helpful.

  • @miguelrosa4311
    @miguelrosa4311 7 лет назад +1

    Looks amazing bro. Keep up the videos I really enjoy them. Just one question what's the offset on your wheels? I have a the same e90xi wanted to go with 18x8.5 all around but not sure on the offset. Thanks.

    If i put lowering springs with my stock shocks does the shocks harm because it wasnt made for lowering springs?

  • @nickthepotter
    @nickthepotter 8 лет назад

    Hey Justin, love your car!
    I have a question about the washer between the strut mount and the upper spring perch. Was that a washer or really thick like a spacer? It almost looks thick more like a spacer in your vid.
    I'm having trouble with my strut/spring install and am trying to make sure I have the right hardware.
    Thanks!

    hi I have a E90 which I purchased literally about a week ago, i'm finding your videos very helpful I was fortunate enough to buy it with a lot of the mods i'd hoped to do already done for me i.e. M sport wheels (blacked out) and steering wheel, tinted windows etc and tinted lights, which made me wonder why you don't have tinted lights? is it personal choice or are they not permitted where you live? also what do you think of hand painting calipers? that's 1 thing thats not already done on it and I am going to paint my brake rotors thanks to your video on the best way to do it! cheers

    • @justinbuice
      @justinbuice  8 лет назад

      Thats awesome! Personally Im not a fan of the tinted tail lights, but would like to get some aftermarket ones in the future, just have to find the right ones. For the calipers, I would spray paint them, just mask everything off really well. I did mine silver when I first got the car but I need to do them again. For me, I like keeping the brakes and stuff looking stock just because they aren't Brembo's or anything special, but that's just me :)

    Just wondering, what are the benefits of lowering a car? Doesn't that make the ride harsher?

    • @justinbuice
      @justinbuice  8 лет назад

      +Hackiesacker007 for me, mostly looks. But also lowers the center of gravity and improves handling. The springs I got ride the same as the stock ones. Stiffer springs give you better handling performance but you sacrifice everyday driving comfort.

      Honestly, they are probably the same or very similar. The more important thing will be the shocks and struts you choose. I have the Bilstein B8's with these springs.
