Push it hard into a braking zone and you feel the nose dive. Get back on the throttle and the rear squats. The engine is ready for more. The suspension is asking you to wait.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Dinan Performance Spring Set for the BMW E60 M5 fixes that balance. Dinan lowers the car 7\/8 in. in front and 3\/4 in. in the rear and raises spring stiffness by 10%. The result is a substantial reduction in body roll, less dive under braking, less squat under acceleration and sharper steering response from 20 mph right up to top speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the Dinan E60 M5 Performance Springs Change\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLower ride height puts the suspension geometry in a better position for hard driving, and the extra spring rate keeps the body from soaking up your inputs before the tires see them. Dinan CNC winds each spring from high tensile chrome silicon wire, shot-peens it for stress relief and presets it so it does not sag over time. They work with both conventional shocks and the factory electronic (EDC) shocks, so you do not need new dampers to run them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRide Quality, Warranty and Install Time\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere is the part most listings skip. Dinan highly recommends pairing these springs with its Supplemental Ride Quality and Handling Kit, part number D193-6017, sold separately. If you skip it, Dinan still warrants the springs against defects, but it will not cover complaints about ride quality or handling. Budget for the kit and the labor too: Dinan lists 9.3 hours for the install. Springs do not affect emissions or require tuning. Dinan part number D100-0913.
