2004 convertible 325
I would like to change my shocks and springs to Bilstiens but I am not sure if I should go down the B6 or B4 way .
I do not wish for a hard ride but something which is close to OEM but not the cost and Bilstien are highly recommended .
Thoughts please ?

Only the E46 cab left now.
Just got too old.

Hi Mart

B4 are close to OEM so that is what you want.

You can get standard height Bilstein or Eibach springs that go with standard suspension. I would also consider Sachs for standard suspension which is what I use on normal stuff.

Something like this would go with B4
