No Dinan springs - what else?

With Dinan lowering springs not available - what lowering springs do folks have good experiences with?

For my 2020 M240i coupe - TIA

The Dinan site says they're available. Are you seeing something different?

They currently show as june 3rd shipping. But looking at other threads those dates are not that definite. So looking at alternatives.

Will check out the Vogtlands

Was looking to go with dinan springs for their modest drop... did you happen to find a vendor with a reasonable shipping time.

Best to shop around for quotes. I sent my old Macht Schnell springs to a buddy for his F80 and he was quoted $1500!! In the end he got it done at EAS in socal for $280 plus $130 for the alignment.

I've been sick these past few weeks so havent scheduled my swap yet but will post pics when I do.

Best price I've found in the Bay Area is $650 installed w/ an alignment at VT in Pleasanton.

I was going to go H&R, but ended up just installing camber plates in front. They seem to be readily available though.

H&R is another option.
