Gotcha. Thanks. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.
Good call on the lubricant though - I've heard too many horror stories of corrosion - especially scary in the climates that deal with snow and salt covered roads.
Good luck on the install! Please post pics when you're done.

I don't. Mine are fine right now but they have 62k on them and I'm taking all the time to install V3's. It's a small price to pay to install new mounts so i don't take the chance of the old ones failing in the next few years.
- Just a rule of thumb to replace the mounts when replacing struts!![Thumbsup](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/thumbsup.gif)

Dammit, my springs came in on Saturday and now I'm like
- should I install them or wait for the rims? Not to mention, I may actually be getting rid of my car soon... jeez, so much pressure...

Maaan! You know how many times I tried getting rid of this car?
it just keeps following me home hahaha ![Laughing](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/laughing.gif)
But yes, of course, you're right. I'll be looking around at some deals and seeing if it would make sense for me to trade it now or maybe keep it a little longer... we'll see what happens...
