Question about shocks.... Hey guys,
I'm basically looking for the best handling / stiff shock (non-adjustable) for the $. I'm not worried about the ride - I just want performance. My car has been lowered approx. 1.5" (not sure if that matters or not).
I'm not that familiar with what's out there, so I thought I'd ask you guys.
Thanks for the help!

Bilstein HD He could probably get away with just plain old Bilstein HD's. Hell MitchnTX has like 50,000 miles on his, and he road races!
Bilstein HD's Thunder Racing 349.00 a set.

www.bimmerparts.com bilstein hd's $307 shipped, or ebay hd's for $329 shipped.
i 2nd the vote for just regular ole hd's unless you want superb performance - then i'd go with the koni DA's.
