foggy147 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Contemplating getting some coilovers for the car, figured the shocks and springs have likely been on the car a good few years so may as well upgrade. Don't plan on lowering the car, want to keep the ride height the same, possibly even slightly higher if possible as do get a very tiny bit of wheel run over bumps. Want to keep a smooth ride so these are not for the intention of tracking it etc. Any advice would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Bullitt Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 As your car has already been there why not pay CW a visit and get him to sort you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattP Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I have a set of the BCs with Fast Road Springs they are great just make sure you get a full Geometry set up after fitting any new suspension. It transforms the car having it set up right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastcar Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 To be honest I would just replace the shocks for a new set of bilstiens! Will handle much better the any of those coilover system you have just mentioned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some Chris Wilson revalved Bilsteins with some of his springs, job done. Voice of experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrighty338 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 HSD's out of those two they even claim to be better then BC, BC do the job dont get me wrong but still budget coilover. Wouldnt spend less than a grand on coilovers personally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraP-Z Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 I have HSD Mono Pro's and even on the softer settings, im finding the ride a bit crashy. Potholes are an absolute nightmare. Definately wouldnt go for these if you are after comfort, although i have felt coilovers which are worse...and a lot of BMW suspension is harder than these too, but not too my liking currently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foggy147 Posted August 15, 2017 Author Share Posted August 15, 2017 I've got a price from Chris and think that option is what IL go for. Bit more expensive than what I had in mind so need to wait a while to save up but may as well get the best set up I can for that money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
