Hello,

Kind of a newbie to the BMW forums. I'm just wondering what the difference between OEM suspensions are.

For example, is the front suspension the same between E60 & E61? So OEM front sport springs for E60 would fit E61 front? On the same topic of springs, can you order just the front springs? OEM or aftermarket? Or even front only coilovers like KW or BCR?

For those who lower their wagon's, how do you deal with the air suspension in the rear? What are some options? I heard of programming the height? is this possible? Do some of you remove the rear air suspension & components and replace with aftermarket suspension?
