Nice looking ride man. What specs are those E88's if you don't mind me asking?

Looks great! Reminded me of my ZCP that I had years ago.

whoa. What spring rates are you running? It’s like a mm away from the fenders.

May I ask how you came to the decision of 10k in the front?

[Thoglan]

Was thinking the same thing. Haven't seen that spring rate choice before.

[Tbonem3]

Well, if your front end is that low, you're gonna need a pretty stiff spring to keep from bottoming out.

I just checked my order history from FA - typo - I'm running 10k front and 12k rear. Their standard off the shelf rates for the E46 M3 is 8k/10k. Swift spring rates always run softer compared to competitors.

but I can't recommend swifts enough on any coilover set up. If you took my M3 for a drive, you would assume I'm running a GC set up with 400lb springs - it's not harsh at all.

Did a little photoshoot with the new daily we picked up for the fiancee. '04 E53 with only 80k miles. It's the same bolt pattern and center bore as the E46 so I put some a/t tires on my staggered ZE40s off the M3 and threw them on. It's in super good condition...
