So i recently bought a e92 335i 07 on lowered springs. I live in the GTA this car is way to low. I want to change the springs n shocks. Mostly concerned about the springs idc if any of these brand struts fail i can change them.
Any one have. Experience with any of these. I woould go b6 strut after. But for now all i cann get quick in canada are whats listed on rockauto/chase

Looks like Rock Auto has Bilstein coil springs too. You can assemble your own assemblies using Bilstein coil springs and struts, with Lemforder hardware. I think that should work out the best.

Looks like FCS offers lifetime warranty as does Monroe. Maybe try either one and see? I am not sure why Monroe assemblies do not include dust boots.

Go to realoem.com and put in the last 7 digits of your VIN, look at the parts diagrams, and search for the OEM parts numbers for your springs and struts. You will find a variety of options. Bilsteins are likely the OEM.

I would personally would avoid Gabriel and Monroes for our cars. May be ok for a short term fix, but ultimately if you're going to keep the car you will want something somewhat more performance oriented.

No issue with Monroes for some of my other vehicles. Just not the E91. On that, I have Koni's (personal preference).

Lemforder hardware is fine. That's OEM.

See if you can get what you need from fcpeuro or another US site delivered to a pickup point in buffalo, Niagara Falls or Lewiston New York and pick it up there. You’ll get it faster and save shipping costs.

You’ll probably get charged 13% at the border, but you can fill up your gas tank and get some groceries without paying tax.

I put FCS quick struts on an envoy xl. Does the job if you need it quick and if you will upgrade later.

Also whats the difference between front struts that where made for e92 after 07 production year and before.

You can call up Bilstein and ask their tech support. On their catalog I only see non-sport coil springs. B6 is avail in non-sport that I can see. Then just order those part numbers off Rock Auto.

There are also strut and coil spring combos but those are like B12-16.
