I have a 2001 Boxster S with US m030 suspension .I need to replace a shock and have found a great deal on a new set of 4 Bilstein sport. They are slightly shorter than stock and I am seeking advice on what springs to use.
Easiest is to reuse my m030 US springs and ideal is probably ROW m030 (costing about $450) maybe another option is a set of HR lowering ones found locally for $250.
I have searched and read what little I can find . I,m not even sure I will actually see a drop with new ROW springs vs already set/sagged US springs . With HD springs already in my possession is it worth the effort and expense to change them
