since road magnet makes custom springs for vehicles of all applications and ride heights they pretty much used my car as a demo to make their first ever bmw e46 lowering springs which will be available in two ride heights along with a powder coated finish and outstanding warranty - lowered (ridding your e46 of that dreaded wheel gap), and slammed (tucking tire in the front as well as rear) <- exact specs not yet known. the process overall took about a month (two weeks to recieve the custom spring seat and two weeks to make the springs as well as adjust them). with an outstanding reputation (made team lexus' springs and helped them win the 2002 grand am championship not to mention bertil roos racing school trains drivers in cars equipt with their springs) the folks at road magnet were more than helpful and eager so a big thanks to mark and his crew and sure while i was skeptical initially, i'd like to now say i couldn't be happier as well as "Looking to go lower? Go Road Magnet!"
