Re: Help on suspension / Coilover..

whats your mileage?

how many miles were placed on this suspension before its 'gone' / spoilt?

do you track? work industrial area?

Bilstein PSS 9 are adjustables right? can adjust rebound / height / stiff-ness etc?

maybe you are on ultra soft setting and keep bottoming out so you think your suspension up lorry.....

Re: Help on suspension / Coilover..

Coilover, KW V2 would be better. Yes it may be over kill basing on your driving patten, but at least can last u till yur ownership.


So far KW would be a better & trust worthly choice (to me) M performance is not coilover. Its a suspension set with 15mm lowered as compare with stock suspension. Not bad too but price are not.


Cheers ~~~ :)

m sport is not coilover ... not height adjustable

So if change to M sport, the gap between the tyres & wheel arch will be bigger than current right?

Sorry I got mixed up with BMW performance suspension with M suspension :eek: Performance suspension cost is high but not M suspension.
M suspension new set? cost: $850.00 + install $80.00 ~ $120.00 + alignment $80.00 = $1,010.00 ~ $1,050.00 sounds wu hua.
Then again depending on u.. Im on M suspension since day one thus am totally alrite with this setup (I was on coilover during my previous rides) stiff but not as stiff as coilover. Ride height looks okie on 19''.

Cheers ~~~ :)

top up $450 go with KW V2 ... coilover can last at least 5 years or 100k milleage
V2 vs V1 = no horse run
imho, jump to V2 and no need to look back :D

merely comparing V2 vs V1

2. KW V2 - $2650 w installation & alignment

Not necessary, M sport is quite low in my opinion. But if you are used to coilover which is harder, you may not get used to M sport.
 
Re: Help on suspension / Coilover..

if you want height adjustable ... the only option is coilover
