Suspension Upgrade Advice Koni Yellows
Previous owner of my car had H&R springs with stock struts and 19inch wheels.
My car has been very rough and loud over rough road or tiny potholes especially from front side unbearable noise. After asking a few people they said it's the setup. I have decided to buy Koni Yellows and use them with my existing H&R springs. Do i need to buy anything else? I'm a pretty newbie when it comes to suspension, so any advice from my fellow members would be appreciated. |

After reading a lot of threads it seems like majority opinion is that Koni Yellow is a better choice as oppose to FSD so I think I will be sticking to yellows.
I saw you mention "Monroe 907984" for the rear shock mount in a thread. Will that fit my car as well? Would you still recommend these for the rear mounts? Secondly, I have looked at so many places but can't seem to find any strut mount besides oem for the front. I was trying to find a Lemforder front strut mount, but no luck thus far. Any recommendation for a budget front strut mount for a XI? Will I also need bumpstops or can I use the existing one on the car? |

I had searched on their before, just tried again, I dont see any mounts for the front, there are lots for the rear. Am I missing something? https://www.ecstuning.com/BMW-E92-33...sion/Bushings/ |

Please report back when you finish the install. My set of brand new Koni Yellows are sitting in my house while I agonize over what to do about springs, primarily due to ride height but also possible sacrifice in comfort vs. stock non-sport setup...which isn't all that comfortable to begin with imo.
