Suspension help e90

Hello all ,

I was wondering if anyone had experience with the Bilstein b12 prokit which come with Eibach springs. I want to swap out my suspension as the Oem is approaching 70k and I want a nice drop . I don't want it too low at all but it sits to high for my liking. Is this a quality set up? Does anyone have any other recommendations. My car is 2010 equip w/ edc will more than likely code it out

Thanks

I installed the B8 performance struts that come in the B12 kit with different springs about a month ago. They are a bit on the stiff side for a DD in my opinion. Handling is great and it soaks up a lot of the road bumps well, it's just a little stiffer than I expected (I'd say between the middle and stiffest EDC setting). As a whole I'm happy with them.

Thank you , maybe with swift springs it might be okay? Have you had any experience with ISC suspension.

I've heard good things about Swift springs. I went with B&G because I liked the drop. Didn't look at coil overs very much.
