jasonmo Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Anyone put m030 over bilstein B6 or B8s on as an upgrade - want to refresh and upgrade the suspension but I think the 30mm drop with the eibachs is going to be too much for daily driving. spyder suspension (20mm drop) is £2k!!!

lordlee Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 What size wheels are you running? I cant imagine anything stiffer on my non PASM car would make the car faster or better to drive across your favourite B road. Also consider that a 30mm drop will alter the car's CoG and perhaps not in an optimum way - despite any geo compensating. As you say yours is a daily driver it may be worth looking at B6's with standard springs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonmo Posted December 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 yeah i don't want a 30mm drop - i thought M030 was about 10mm/15mm drop? thats what i'm looking for little lower, little stiffer, little better damped. I'm on 19" lobsters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spyderman8 Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 I think a 987 on 19s wouldn't be very pleasant on the road with a stiffer suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulQ Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 H&R do M030 springs for the 987. £135 a set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Daniel Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 I have the Eibachs on my 3.4 987 and yes they are firm but I find them fine on most road surfaces, I just have to be careful with the reduced ground clearance. They do make the car sit so much better. As PaulQ says H&R do a so called 'M030' spring set that is 10mm lower but seems to be £243 on the Eurocarpart website.

edc Posted December 29, 2016 Report Share Posted December 29, 2016 Chris at CG ran a 987 for a while but as far as I know they didn't modify the suspension. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
