    WTB: e23 Spax springs

    I've been looking high & low for a set of e23 Spax springs. I'm sure someone has an old set stashed somewhere. Also, any leads would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    I would be interested too. Does Spax make springs for the E23? I can't find them listed on any of their dealers websites

    Spax stopped making them for the e23 a few years back. They are awesome on my e28 though. A tad stiff for DD duty but awesome at speed.

    I haven't ridden on H&R yet to know how they feel. It looks like Cobra & V-Maxx are available in Europe, but I've been unable to find reviews on those.

    I've got h&r springs in both the e24 and e34. Both with nilstien heavy duty shocks. They ride nice without being too firm.
    The blower in the 540/6 is now running sweet too. Pity u had all the running issues with yours.
