I have also read on here that lowering the car in the 1" + zone can be brutal on the stock shocks so I'm eager to bring it back to stock height.

having a guy send me over some used OEM springs out of a M240i with sport package/adaptive suspension. (hoping it's basically all the same components on both cars)

Anyone have some spring rates for 228i m sport springs vs 235i/240i? -- is the heavier front end of the i6 version going to mean my 228i will be a bit higher in the front when I put those springs in or will it be negligible?
The M240i has different springs than the 228i M-Sport, both front and rear. The M240i's springs are quite a bit stiffer by like 50% in the front and 30% in the rear.
