Maybe the FSD wouldn't be a bad choice after all. See link for a Tirerack review of the Koni Sport, Koni FSD, and BMW OE sport package dampers on an E46 330Ci. I think I might still lean toward the Koni Sports -- I plan to do a couple of track days a year and it would be nice to have be able to adjust it tighter for that, but overall the FSD sounds pretty good.
Cheapest prices I've seen are $625 for Sport and $675 for FSD.

Dam good write up. Since I dont feel like adjusting. The FSD makes more sense. ARS comes with the auto leveling in the sport package. This car is a base model cause its sitting in the clouds and it came with those nasty 16' factory rims 225/50

just to clarify the pics of the fender to wheel are stock suspension. And the ones above are also stock. I bought the springs and struts they are not here yet maybe today!
