Real world results

We have fitted these springs on our own cars and for many customers at MJ Modifications, and the feedback is consistently positive. The combination of a 35 mm front and 10 mm rear drop lowers the centre of gravity, tightens chassis reactions and keeps day to day drivability intact. The E46 Compact feels more agile and composed while still being comfortable for commuting and longer trips.
