I have a local performance shop I trust and go to regularly. Install was $400 plus alignment after. $100-$125 per corner is where you should be

Yep, I'm impressed as well. Installed my set last weekend and they were totally worth it.

Put the OEM 19's back on and added 10MM ECS Tuning spacers. Loving how the car looks with the Dinan Springs, spacers and OEM 19's

Is this a 225/40/19 square setup?

Just installed the Dinan springs and bumpstops over the weekend on my 330i xDrive. Super happy with it, although the front bump stops weren't a 1:1 match, needed a little custom work to make it fit but all in all, everything worked out great.

I was pretty shocked at how much the bump stops make a difference. It definitely absorbs impact from bad road conditions way better than stock. The overall ride feels very much OEM+ and the lower center of gravity has definitely improved cornering and handling. So glad I waited on this setup as oppose to going with H&R. The drop is also perfect for NYC road conditions.

Any chance you can take/post a couple pics from the front and rear down the side body line to show the fender flushness?

I am going to ditch the run flats soon and go with 235/40/19 to fill the wheel well just a bit more with my Dinan springs. I keep debating between 10, 12, or 15mm spacers.

No. Suspension install should never be more than an hour per corner. Supplemental ride quality kit is just different bump stops. They're easily accessible when the shocks come out, which you have to do to swap the springs anyway
