    Default Spring/damper combination

    I would like to buy a new set of springs and shock absorbers that will give me a firm yet comfortable ride and good braking and steering performance.Im not racing it, not dragging it and not driving sideways> (Im 46) I dont want it to look too lowered(as close to OE as possible). What would you fine people recommend? By the way I run M5 (copies) 17X8's

    I'd say new BMW coils if you do not want it lowered, you can get those from many online stores like bmaparts or bavauto for a decent price.

    Then run Koni shocks all the way around or Bilstein HD.

    Agreed on Mtech spring but I'd go with Bilstein Sport Shock absorbers.
