The springs are just over an inch shorter than the ones I took off - but they do seem stiffer as the ride height is about the same - but I think still a bit on the low side. Ride is different too - bit more bouncy. Preferred the other springs to be honest...

Thanks for the info,

When I needed replacement springs I fitted a pair of springs from Best of British.They asked me if I wanted standard or Heavy Duty.I had the H/D ones which although the same height they were a thicker diameter coil.

The car sat at much the same height but I was able to put more of a load into it..and the car felt firmer when not loaded.

I was hoping the BMW spring would have offered a higher ride height.
