Bilsteins B6 perfect with 4 thick 7/16 washers.

I’d recommend Bilstein 5100 shocks, and old man emu springs for about a 2 inch lift.
Pros: 2 inch lift

I have 318is with eibach pro kit 1 inch lower and bilstein b8 (basically original) and it drives like a dream. I personally dont like lowered or slam cars especially as its classic and i want to enjoy the deive not be bothered with potholes. If tou really want to lower it make sure the springs and shocks are good quality. Previous suspension was TA tehnica and the entire chassis was moving on potholes. My previous e30 (316i) had the same stupid TA tehnica and I swapped the suspension from a e30 wagon that had the same ground clearance as you and it perfect for the city
Pros: drives like a dream
Cons: chassis was moving

I got h and r lowering springs and bilstein B8 shocks and struts. They work really well. And i can go over speed bumps and handle rough roads.
Pros: handle rough roads
My 325 ix was lowered by the previous owner on Bilstein and h and r sport, but it is a harsh ride.
Cons: harsh ride

Note 5100s are stiff... Not a soak up the bumps kind of shock FYI
I like mine, just didn't know beforehand so I was a little surprised it felt stiffer than OEM. Also more composed on hard hits, washboard, etc. And notably less body roll, good for on road handling in that sense...
Pros: less body roll, good handling
Cons: stiffer than OEM
