Question Experiences with Vogtland springs?!

I'm currently in the market for a set of shocks and lowering springs, I know most of you guys lean to the H&R with Bilstein but I want to try something new..

Currently looking for the Vogtland to go with ST Shocks (mainly KW), Heard really good reviews for those shocks.

I need to make my decision regarding the springs, I have in mind either the H&R Sport or the Vogtland, I saw tons of pictures for 318ti with H&Rs but none with the Vogtland, searching found some of you guys mentioned it'll be really dropped even I don't think 1.5" front and rear is a huge drop.. Any Suggestions or even pictures for comparison between Vogtland and H&R ?

Thanks..

I found a few cars with the Vogtland set-up. Maybe these owners will have more info for you.

Default Just took them off my car

Traded them for M Tech springs with a member here. Had them on maybe 6 months - for me, they're much too severe a drop for street use. Even the smallest speed bumps struck fear in my heart. Not just scraping, solid grounding. Love the M Tech springs.
