      Yes. They're essentially Bilstein's OE replacement.

      Bilstein HDs and Sports are the same damping rates.

        Why are they named differently then? I understand - if not mistaken - that HD and Sports are the same in length but different in stiffness.

          You have it backwards. Same damper rating, but the Sports are shorter than the HDs.

              These Tourings would match well with M3 springs.

                well it looks as though I will be going either Eibach or HR sports with the HD's.
                I hear good they are very compatible and more responsive then factory without compromising ride comfort.

                    Tourings are actually better than stock and will last forever.
                    Good price for these. They are actually hard to find from time to time as well. The supply seems to run out often.

                      the factory "IS" suspension is made by Billstein.

                          bump - these are in excellent condition and would work excellent for replacing old clapped out, reboundless E30 shocks/struts... :)

                              Tourings are awesome for street cars. Good tight right, but not hard like sports or HDs.
