Default Need help with sturts/shocks

I have a 07 550i non sport model. My struts/ shocks are going dead on me and I need some advise about what I should go with. The v8 engines are a Lil heavier so I want to make sure I get a good setup. I do know i want to go with the eibach pro kit Springs. I'm not really a fan of coil overs. I'm a everyday driver of my car and when I get the chance to corner or get in and out of tight traffic I want that great stability. So any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

well an update since i posted on that thread that you opened. I have eibach springs and replaced the B6 shocks for MSport BOGE shocks. The blisteins were amazing just way too tight for our borken roads here in the country. Nice balance now, soft but tight.
