Dinan vs H&R Springs 2019 330i RWD

just looking for different points of view. trying to keep some ride comfort while changing the stock stance. there will also be the addition of a 19x9 or 19x8.5 in wheel in the near future. i'm looking to avoid rubbing even with passengers. any advice would be helpful. Thank you!

I've experienced both albeit in an m340

I found the H&R springs to sit a little bit lower and the ride to be a bit more bouncy vs the dinan. I'm presently running the dinan in my m340 along with the ride handling kit (modified bumpstops and couldn't be more pleased)

I've found the ride to be comfortable and compliant with everything from road trips to kids soccer games, autoX and 140+ mph high speed track use. Also no complaints from 83 year old mother on the freeway

H&R makes a very fine product as well

Ps- I think there are Dinans for sale in the member classifieds right now along with the bump stops (could be wrong take a look)

Hope this helps

Like chenry said, biggest difference for me was ride quality. I ran h&r springs before dinan's and after a while the h&r's became too bouncy. Dinan with bump stops are the best option for a lowering spring setup imo.

As I am also new to the BMW world I thought I would ask where Dinan springs are manufactured since it does state on their website.
