    Default K-Mac springs for e34- does anyone know about them?

    Does anyone know how K-Mac springs look on an e34? Just got a set second hand, and I believe they will lower the car further than the M-tech ride height. Has anyone seen these springs before, know where they are made, if they are any good... etc?

    Many thanks in advance, Nick

    G'day Kris- yep they are orange, and the PO said they were K-Mac. Aparently K-Mac is Aussie, so guessing who makes these might be interesting. Perhaps King, perhaps Lovells, perhaps National Springs, some low volume deal somebody setup- who knows. They are for the 535, but these springs are pretty much universal acorss all e34s.

    I have the feeling that they will slam the car... hmm

    I was going to say that they make the springs to a custom height so I have no idea how much lower they will be.

    Ah k, interesting. Maybe I can drop them into them and see if they can tell... well I don't think I can use them then, Eibach/H&R ride height is what I need... it's time to make some spacers for the rear spring seats so one can simply add the height one wants by removing the spring and adding the taller spring seat.

    thanks Kriss...
