What tire pressures are you running with these springs? I just lowered mine with ride kit and it feels a little bouncey

Lowering springs will increase some bounce depending on road conditions. Tires also have a huge impact. Once I switched my daily tire to PS4S, the bounce practically went away unless on rough roads. Daily PSI is 36-38 HOT.

Damn I had it set to 36 cold. 1st canyon run was definitely an improvement with the springs and 255 square Conti Dws plus but some dips felt a little unsettling

My suggestion is to not follow idrive recommendations. Follow the tire mfg and enthusiasts recommendations on this forum.

I called a local shop requesting a quote to install Dinan springs + ride quality kit and they told me (verbatim) "the bump stop kit they provide is a 'universal' one and we've tried putting them on several times and they just don't fit the 340i correctly". Can anyone corroborate? First I am hearing this.

Just lowered mine on spring and quality kit. 1st time I heard that. ModAuto had no problems installing either

Local shop just installed springs and the bump stops. No issues, actually said this was super smooth. Just got the car back and feels nice. Slight creaking that I will follow up with the shop if it doesn’t go away in a week.

I heard something similar with the LCI models...was going to purchase a set but now I'm hesitant.
