E36 tds on uprated suspension?
Discussion
My 325 tds rear suspension is dead so I've got to bite the bullet and get some replacements.
Now I can imagine OEM parts from BMW are going to be rather pricy but I can get aftermarket suspension at trade.
Am looking at the Eibach Pro-Street-S coilovers which are meant to be rather good for fast road suspension. Has anyone any experience with Eibach aftermarket kit on BMW's?

my experience of Eilbach is excellent, good products with out extortion. You can ring them direct and get advice on uprating without compromising ride. Improving damping and the roll bars goes a lot further than just harder lower springs. Dropping the rear 15-20mm with better damping is a good option. Any lower and the camber starts to go too negative, meaning wearing out the insides of the precious low profiles or you could use adjustable bushes in the rear swing arms. If you lower the back you will need to drop the front too. Hope this helps. Z

Agreed 
I know very little on the subject as I've only just bought my 1st bimmer but it is fitted with Eibach speings and beilstein dampers. The ride, whilst very taught, is still comfortable.
