dms spring from dms
4 Bilstein hd shocks-bimmerparts.com

I've had about 3 days of daily driving since the install and my car feels as if nothing was changed for the positive. My car seems to bounce more (from the back) now that i have the shocks/springs combo. The front looks alot lower but the back looks like the same height. No big deal i know i would have to give these springs time for the back to settle. The ride is practically the same except my wheel hop seems to be a little worse. I have to be alot more carefull going over bumps i've scraped 3 times already (i expected that but the rear is unstable). It seems like the shocks aren't doing their job. Im assuming this is how a car with lowering springs and stock shocks would feel. Could i have some bad shocks? I was expecting a stiffer feel when its the complete opposite. Wouldn't these shocks give me stiffer feel? I was expecting a night/day difference and i didn't. Buying these shocks/springs slowed me down from installing my headers and i feel like i wasted my money.
My car's suspension is totally stock with brand new 245/50/16 firestone firehawk tires.

Any help would really be appreciated

also i got a wheel alignment a month ago and im getting it re-aligned tomorrow hopefully that will help.

 

I have DMS springs . the rear heigt seemed a little high. they claim it give the car a nice rake. i removed my rear isolator and it went down another1./2" Shocks might be too heavy duty. My decarbons ride just fine on my car. I do scrape sometimes

 

I have LG Motorsports G2 springs and Bilstein HD's and it definitely NOT bouncey.

Maybe your springs are made that way.

 

I have dms springs with the stock shocks and mine rides about the same as it did stock.

BTW, any lowering springs will increase the posibility of wheel hop. So far i have been lucky and am not having issues with it.

 

Do you have relocator brackets for the rear control arms?

 

Im no sure if you are talking to me or not, but i do not have them.


Here is a couple pics of my car with the lowering springs.

If you have wheel hop, you need lower control arm relocation brackets. Especially on a lowered car. You can find them at www.bmrfabrication.com
