    Koni’s - Which ones do you use on a Touring?

    Looking to get a set of Koni’s for my rear wheel drive 325i Touring.

    Which are the correct ones? I’m going to run them with a set of H&R Sport’s that are Touring-specific.

    Have a look here https://www.koniuk.co.uk/vehicle-search-form and pick the part number you feel will be best. Alternately, call or email Koni.

    Keep in mind that many of the P/Ns will be the same as off the shelf dampers aren't really matched to non-stock springs. You can also try to look up spring rates and see if the H&R sports you have are pretty close to any stock springs so you can get closer to having a factory type sport suspension.

      Good call, thanks. Is there any point in getting top-adjustable shocks for the rear? On a normal E30 it’s easy to adjust the tops through the trunk, but the Touring has all the interior trim etc.

        Nah, alao with adjustables most seems to set them, maybe change them once more and never touch them again. IMO, a waste.

          Yeah. Makes sense. I guess the M3 versions are shorter. So that’s useful for a lowered car. Hmmmm.
