KW makes V3 coilovers for $2900 and I rather just buy an M5 for my next car than dish that much out. Megan's make coils for $900 but not for the x drive. I plan on having this car for another year or two so was thinking about going with the H n R sport springs. If anyone has personal experience with these springs and could say how long they've had their springs for on stock struts/how many miles that'd be great. There are so many of these threads but no one really answers that
couple of members had their shocks blow after a H&R spring install within a week or two? i'll have to find those post
