So I have had my E86 3.0si for about 18 months and from day one I haven’t been happy with the suspension. It’s far too hard and crashy at lower speeds which is odd as it has plenty of travel and indeed is much better at higher speeds even on bumpy roads. I’m certain it’s the original M Sport stuff from 2006 and is now on 130,000 miles.
So what to get. I would like a small drop in ride height for aesthetics (20-25 mm) and would like it less crashy at low speeds along with better control at high speeds with less dive and roll. I have been looking at the Bilstein B12 kit but I’m not 100% sold yet.
Please suggest some options to me based on your experiences. I don’t want to break the bank but it needs an upgrade. Just remember it’s for the road so KW V3’s etc would be unnecessary.
Looking forward to some replies.
