I wanted Bilstein but I needed something and at this point I'm really happy with the BMW PS.

Don't look back. That's the way I'd go if I had the budget.

Yea but it’s like double the price and I have to service them after a certain mileage. Just trying to see if it’s really worth going jrz on a daily driver that would rarely see any track.

If it's daily driver only, then go with the B8 with sport springs. If you still wanted to adjust ride-height, then there are a number of options that have that adjustability for much less cost -- they're sometimes just more of a pain to adjust and have less settings. But that would probably save you more than $1000. I'd still do it if I had the cash as those JRZs are beautiful with a breath of options. That said, I don't think you'd really need a rebuild very often if you're not tracking it.

If you have the B12 kit and are looking to replace the B8 shocks & struts because they have say over 50 to 75,000 miles on them, then you could just order the B8's by themselves. The Eibach springs should still be in very shape, if you just DD the car.

I'm probably just not up to date or looking in the wrong place, but do Dinan's only come for the E93 and the 335s? ie. not for my 328i?

I'd be interested in hearing about ride quality with B8 and Dinan springs. Dinan springs and Koni sport shocks give a choppy ride.

I've got B8 with BMW PS springs (same as Dinan). Ride is very firm and taught

What suspension have you gone though? This setup might make sense for me since I just need to buy the yellow dampers and keep everything else OEM. Not sure if I want to drop 2k on a set of GC or TCKs at this point.

IF I meant choppy, I would have written choppy
