Shock absorbers Monroe or Sachs

Sachs shocks with Eibach pro-kit springs all round - if your E39 is a petrol straight 6, you need Sachs 556834 front and Sachs 170857 rears with the relevant Eibach pro-kit springs for your engine

I have a Lexus and just paid 350$ just for the Sachs shocks and replacement items, and still have to do the work myself.

I changed everything in my suspension, including new shocks and front springs. Compared to what it was it was a huge improvement. I used Sachs shocks (m sport).

At an absolute minimum, Sachs shocks are worth the money, they're perhaps the one thing that has the biggest impact on ride quality. Being a more complex part than control arms and such, a cheap brand isn't going to have anywhere near the same ride quality.

I've had them for about 1,000 miles or so. Do they "work miracles?" No, but they are a marked improvement over the OEM Sachs. They are quite firm when cornering and braking, but compliant over rough roads at normal speeds.

I got the same thing off of eBay for $900 low fronts (30mm), super low rear (40-50mm) sits level and i didn't notice a difference in ride stiffness with the Monroe's

For stock, I've heard decent things about Monroe shocks.

I replaced my with Monroe’s and it feels liked they’re already going out again.

Just put those same ones on my 96 f250 and they're soft AF.

I have a 2020 BRZ with SACHS performance shock absorbers. I’ve been having a rough ride. Subaru service center said the front struts are weak
