H&R coilover or KW sleeve kit?
Can't decide too go with KW sleeve kit or H&R coilover. Car is a 08 e93 without edc. Just looking for a better stance and cornering without being too firm. Which do you guys think is better? I don't see a lot of people using the coilover is there a reason for this? Please help
Thanks |

For the price and the fact you dont have EDC I would do H&R coils, not a bad deal and they come with Bilsteins if I'm not mistaken. Their quality was crappy back on the E46 world but I heard they got better now (Not the best). I think TMS has a good deal on those right now. Don't waste your time with the stock shocks, it's ok for guys like me who want to wear out their stock EDC shocks before going full coils.

On the E46, I know a lot of people complained about the cup kit's ride quality. That was just dampers/springs. Not height adjustable.

IIRC H&R coils for the E46 were adjustable.
OP, crappy meaning, bad quality. Apparently they got over that and made them better this time, again for the price, you can't beat them with a stick. Before I get murdered here, I know there are a million other brands out there you could go with if you're willing to spend more money but I rather do H&R coils than Adjustable sleeves if I didnt have EDC and money was an issue.

H&R without a doubt, even if you have EDC.
There is a vast improvement over OEM, and out performs any sleeve kit.
