E60 Suspension

breezy423 · 11-03-2010, 09:21 AM

I'm currently shopping for a coilover setup for my E60, wondering what recommedations you guys have. What I'm looking for is to lower the stance (obviously), stiffen the handling moderately, but still be able to drive the vehicle daily without having to frequently visit a chiropractor.

I am looking at a set of H&R coilovers for my 5 series, coilovers are definately the way to go! Although I am very happy with the H&R lowering springs on my 3 series, I dont know how the H&R coilsprings compare with the other quality brands. Anyones input would be appreciated! Thanks, Brad

On the other forum 5series.net. Alot of guys there swear by the Ksport coilovers. There's a vendor there acuteperformance who sells them for less than $1000. The best thing about them is that both the ride comfort and the height can be adjusted without having to pull them out of the car.

I've been looking closely at KW coilovers, only thing that holds me back is that I drove a E92 equipped with them and I didn't really appreciate the ride.
