Sachs Sporting vs M Technik Springs / bilsteins

[Deke NorCal]

How do these setups vary? I was thinking Sachs will be a bit stiffer and lower than M Technik, and that M -tech Springs are more forgiving.

I have a 1990 535i, and at 140k the wear in my suspension components is starting to show. I have stock wheels now but in the future will have a genuine set of M-Parellel's.. What setup should i go for???

Please Mark your choice on the poll
Thanks Guys

cant compare as i have always had the mtech..i f you go 17s or 18s and lowered suspension be prepared for some low speed harhness.Pic of standard mtech setup with 17s and 255 40 tires Dont know the make or model of the wheelsThe mudflaps have gone now too!
