IF you are going to get H&R you mine as well get ST V1 since they are cheaper and the ride is more comfortable.

Unless you plan on going with a more sport option, then H&R would be that option for those people.

If you are not Xi I'd go with KW v2. That adjustability in the shocks really makes a differnece in the ride quality.

My E92 RWD was on KW V2, my Xi is on Kw V1.

Although the KW V1 is still good for a DD, it would be nice to tone down the shocks just a hair but overall no regrets.

I don't particularly recommend Spring and shock combos because of the ride height you are stuck with. If you go with a spring and shocks combo, really consider an adjustable shock like koni.

I still weigh heavily towards recommending most folks to a Kw V1.

im buying the kw v1 in 1 month and id like to know if they will really stiff compared to the stock x drive suspension of my 335i e90 lci ? also should i save more for the kw v3 cause you said you would like to tone down the shocks a bit on the kw v1 but its not possible right ? i have a 1 year old daugther in the back and i wouldnt want the ride to be really firm
