My Ride: 04' 530i 6spd
Default Koni FSD vs Koni Sport on a 530i

I have an 04' 530i non sport. Has anyone had experience with both the Koni FSD and the Koni Sport for comparison? I want good handling but I want to maintain a comfortable ride. I don't want it to ride any firmer than say a 530i sport model. I do have 18' sport rims with the 245/40/18 on them. I just installed the Koni sports and they are at the softest setting and I'm thinking I should have gone with the FSDs since they might be a bit too firm for my liking.

Thanks in advance.

What is the difference between these two types besides the Sport being adjustable?

Big difference between the FSD and sport, I could attempt to explain it but Koni did an awesome job of that here: http://www.koni-na.com/fsd-frequency...ve-damping.cfm

Basically, the FSD is awesome for daily driving, but if you want a firmer adjustable ride then the sport is for you!
