from my experience, NT roads are better than Kowloon's, and Kowloon's are better than HKI. Try go to ?? and you will know what I mean...
good thing about coilover is, you adjust it to fit your driving style but it would take some time to make all the adjustments...
my 335 with PSS9 for instance, it was good for fast or high speed corners on good surface, but sucks on TMS as it was just too stiff and the car would become very unforgiving when the road becomes a little bumpy...
but on the other hand, I love the ride height where all 4 wheels looked like they are "IN" the fenders and with some -ve camber ...![Smile](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/smile.gif)

Mike - thanks for that! Usually drive on Kowloon side, but are the roads on Kln / HKI that much different?? If i know of people who have it installed then for sure i would like to get their feedback. dont wanna fork out a load of the coilovers and find they are too stiff or not as good as i hoped!

I find right now my setup is too stiff and bounces when going round corners on uneven surfaces - it feels like its going to hop all over the place! i was thinking about getting same set up as Keith with the Eibach and Koni fsd, but i cannot lower the car enough with that set up.... Coilovers may be the only solution! How much did you pay for your PSS9?
Just checked Sachs homepage and they dont have coilovers for E60?

I meant western district, kennedy town...
go for coilovers and leave yourself more flexiblity in the future...looks like you have front spoiler install and you might have problem if the car goes too low...
The PSS9 came with the car when I bought it, it should be in the 15k range but I am not certain...

may be H&R with fsd fits you better if you want it lowered more.

D Derek had the H&R coilover, that had a nice ride!
if i were you i'd go for the electronic Bilstein coilover, flick a switch and it will lower.......
i think about 25-30k, ask AK
