Just got these installed on my 2023 M3 RWD (using stock springs, no other modifications), and so far very impressed. Basically experiencing all the benefits already mentioned on this thread. Absolutely worth the $$, labor was more expensive than the shocks themselves, but again totally worth it ????

Pros: experiencing all benefits
Cons: expensive labor

My two cents. KYB is great, don’t buy a eco KYB get something in the daily driver to performance range. The cheap KYB are just too hard riding IMO.

Pros: KYB is great
Cons: hard riding

I recommend H&R Sport Springs 20 mm lift, and Koni Heavy Track adjustable hydraulic shock absorbers (no gas).

This combination reduces body roll and sway enormously. It feels tight and sporty around the urban jungle, although sometimes I feel the springs are too stiff when there is no load in the back.

Off the pavement, this combination provides a brilliant ride. It soaks up corrugations, ruts, potholes and rough surfaces really well. I'd describe the ride as plush but firm, extremely comfortable even while taking a lot of punishment. And I never feel any loss of control even when pushing it hard on the worst dirt surfaces. The spring rates and the shocks on a light adjustment (1/2 turn or 20%) are ideal for gravel track bashing.

If you don't need a suspension lift then avoid it, or minimise it, which is what I did.

Pros: reduces body roll, brilliant ride
Cons: springs too stiff
Vehicle: Suzuki Jimny

This month, I installed Koni STR.T shocks... The handling is already way better than factory, just by adding more damping over the Euro Tuned shocks.

Pros: better handling, more damping

I put those on my 2007 Maxima and didn't have a good result. The rear KYB shock absorbers were way too stiff and they made the car bouncy at highway speeds.

Cons: too stiff, bouncy at highway speeds
Vehicle: Nissan Maxima
