Looking to lower your G80 M3 without giving up the factory dampers or adaptive suspension?

The factory G80 ride height leaves a noticeable amount of wheel gap, but not every owner needs the height adjustability of a HAS kit or wants to move to a complete coilover system.

H&R Lowering Springs replace the factory springs while retaining the OEM shock absorbers and electronic adaptive damper functionality, providing a straightforward way to lower your G80 and improve its stance.

For the G80 M3, H&R offers two options. Sport Springs provide the more conservative drop, while Super Sport Springs add additional lowering for a more aggressive stance.

Pairing the springs with properly sized wheel spacers can take the fitment one step further. The springs reduce the vertical wheel gap, while spacers bring the wheels outward for a more flush appearance with the fenders.

Retain the factory dampers.
Choose the drop that fits your build.

Why H&R Lowering Springs

The H&R philosophy is simple and effective: to manufacture the best suspension products using only the highest-grade materials.

This philosophy has helped make H&R an industry leader in high-performance suspension components. Whether used on the street or track, H&R has built its reputation around consistent, proven suspension performance and quality.

Lowering the G80 isn't only about appearance. Reducing ride height lowers the vehicle's center of gravity, helping reduce body roll and improve handling characteristics while giving the car a more planted appearance.

H&R uses vehicle-specific linear or progressive spring designs depending on the application, balancing performance, ride quality, and everyday usability.

Reduced wheel gap.
Lower center of gravity.
Proven German suspension engineering.

Lowering Springs vs. Height Adjustable Springs

Traditional lowering springs provide a predetermined ride height. Once installed, the amount of lowering is determined by the spring kit you select.

A Height Adjustable Spring (HAS) Kit adds threaded height adjusters, allowing you to fine-tune the vehicle's ride height within a specified range.

If you want to individually dial in your ride height after installation, a HAS kit is the better option.

If you prefer a simpler suspension solution and already know the amount of lowering you want, H&R Lowering Springs provide a proven fixed drop without the additional height-adjustment hardware.

Automaz Approved

H&R Lowering Springs are a great option for the G80 owner who wants a proven, predetermined drop while retaining the factory dampers and adaptive suspension.

Choose Sport for the more conservative OEM+ drop or Super Sport if you want the G80 sitting lower with a more aggressive stance.

If the ability to fine-tune your exact ride height is important to you, a HAS kit is the better option.
