No plans. I only track 4-6 times a year, so it won't be worth it to me. If I do plan to track more, I'll probably get coilovers instead at that point.

Thanks in advance.

I don't know it from the site, but you can give eAs a call since I had them order the springs for me.

The M235i has the adaptive M suspension.

Will do! If the wheels need spacers, I'll probably get them from eAs while I'm there since they carry all sorts of sizes from Macht Schnell. I'll be able to experiment to my heart's content!

Can't say I disagree, but I prefer having light weight, smaller wheels (my E92 M3 had 18s too). I'm more into "daily drivable track function" than pure aesthetics in most cases (I track all of my cars and daily drive them).

It's only a 1" drop all around, not really an aggressive drop. I doubt shocks/struts will be needed for a setup like this. I believe if/when H&R makes race versions of these springs, those would actually require upgraded shocks.

Both my other cars are lowered on HR springs so eventually I'll also lower the 2 if the adjustable dampers can handle it.

These were the Sport springs. I don't think any other versions are out at this time.
