I need to install OEM springs in my E90. Anyone got a set laying around?

I have a set for an E92 M3

Let me know if that would work for you. PM me an offer and if all good, I can get them shipped out.

Ok so I don't know much about the M3. Will the springs for the E92 fit my E90?

Technically, all e90, e92, and e93 springs will physically interchange, but the rates differ depending on your body style and options (same for shocks). So if you care to find the correct springs you'll need to supply the last 7 of your VIN or at least tell us if your car is a ZCP and has EDC or not. If you don't care then any 2008-2013 M3 springs will fit.

Ok awesome thank you for the short answer. I literally was up until 1 am researching springs trying to figure this out. I can't believe how complex BMW made this. Multiple spring types even within the same exact model built in the same month!

All I am trying to do is to get my car to pass inspection so I can race Autocross F class. Someone at the track noticed my car was too low, so now I am stuck in STU, which I have no chance in.

SO a follow-on question: for someone who is new to performance cars, would I even be able to detect the differences in spring stiffness between the E90/E92/E93 springs? Are the differences very noticeable?
