E60 Suspension
I have a 2004 545i with 67k miles. i feel like the car is lower than it should be because the shocks are wore out. Do you guys recommend getting an aftermarket set up or buy the OEM shocks? I wouldnt mind my ride being a little lower but i just dont want my ride to be to rough.

shocks/struts dont lift the car. they only dampen movement. worn shocks done lower the car. worn shocks result in a more bouncy ride.
springs are what hold the car up. shocks just control how they bounce.
