Suspension confusion!

[J4CK05EE30]

Its time to upgrade my suspension for my sport and am not sure what shocks/spring etc to get....i want it slightly lower than 325 sport especially at the front.

anyone got any pics of a standard sport and know what springs/shocks they using(ride height)...

i understand theres a few different types ie: bilstein b4/b6/b8s,boge,spax and whatever else there are, which would you guys recommend?


what top mounts do people recommend (standard or upgrade to any others)

and finally springs.... what are people on here using and recommend

im looking to re-do my whole suspension and thinking might as well do it all at once instead of bit by bit, and want it to be comfortable but sligthly lower than the standard sport look...


any suggestions

Standard springs in a sport at BMW Mtech at 15mm lower than standard (4x4 spec) ride height.
I'd go with this

from wherever is cheapest, and some matching roll bars.

As for top mounts, E46 parts are a good upgrade. I can't fault the Rogue Engineeringrear top mounts, they've been on my car for 20,000 miles and have been thrashed round country roads on a B12 kit and haven't moaned yet.

This is a pic of my sport on standard shocks with 30mm Eibach pro-kit mate, just right for my taste but I know its not low enough for some!

Sadly she's picked up a bit of rust since then, I think that was the last year we saw sun!! Those tyres are are 205/55/15.

Yep I'd go with a B12 kit.. Eibach springs lower 30-40mm from standard height and a set of Bilstein B8 shocks make a good combo. Slightly stiffer but no bone shaker..
