    DD Suspension setup?

    Hey R3v, noob checking in here.

    Just got an E30 91 318is a couple weeks ago and I'm loving it. It has it's issues but little by little, I'm getting there.

    So I guess the PO decided to cut the springs on the car and it rides pretty bad and uncomfortable. You can also here raddeling and clunking around the back.
    The struts and shocks also look like they're the original 23 year old parts.

    Was just wondering what some of you guys were running in your cars. I'm looking for something comfortable that handles well. This is gonna be a DD. Low isn't a real priority at the moment (don't get mad at me LOL).

    Also, what else do you guys recommend changing while I'm gonna replace the struts, shocks, and springs.

    Thanks.

    For aggressive handling: HR Race and Billie sports or Konis

    For better then stock handling and ok ride: HR Sports and Billie Sports or Konis

    For Stockness: HR OE Sport Springs and billies/konis

    You get the pattern, whatever you want + billies or konis and youll do fine.

      I think I'm gonna go with those. Seems pretty good to me, what do you guys think.

      Also, what else should I get while I'm already doing this.

      Thanks R3v

        Control arms & bushings, tie rods, rear trailing arm bushings, front/rear upper strut/shock mounts, subframe bushings, sway links & bushings. Essentially everything related to the suspension/steering.
        The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
