Its basically just rubber that goes around the dead end of the spring to avoid squeaks and creaks and such.. In the long run i think it's worth the investment.

Yeah, I was thinking it's expensive... I'm only dropping the car next spring any ways, so I started shopping now to get an idea of what I'm in for.

NO rubber kit for the springs, and no any noise.

you're not dropping anything using Fsport springs... you won't even notice a difference if lower is what you're shooting for.

They said it's a 1" drop, which is what I want.
I dropped a 3 series by 1" and it's actually noticeable.

I got the springs, shocks, and sway bars. I noticed a firmer ride and I measured a 3/4 inch drop.

Which is exactly why I recommended H&R springs.
1.4 inch drop in the front and 1.3 in the rear (or the other way around, cant remember for sure) is an actual drop, compared to the 3/4 inch "drop"
H&R provides a "real" drop and still allows the OP to drive normally. Unless he will run aggressive wheels, no need to roll fenders. Drop height isnt the only factor that determines if you need fender mods, tire size and offsets play a big role too. Im tucking tire on 20s and my fenders are not rolled.
