Was browsing thru the pricelist and saw an E39 M5 application...

Pricing is very reasonable (MSRP $1,149)...this will be a good competitor to the beloved BC Racing coils that are popular amongst us E39 beast owners, especially since it's made by KW.

More info here.

These don't offer damper adjustments. At that price, I'd just go with Bilstein PSS, a proven name. If you want adjustability, though, then the BCs are the front runners even though their performance under stress remains to be seen (at least by the populace of M5Board).

looks like a good buy...

I asked the same question a couple weeks ago:
http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/e39-m5-e52-z8-discussion/171684-st-coilovers.html

They seemed to be pretty good. A lot of the M3'rs use them and seem satisfied with them. If you drive in a place where it doesn't snow then this might be a good deal. Only difference basically is the INOX shock body between KW and ST.

I plan to test the bc coilovers at the nurburgring at some stage this year.

Do these require the purchase of suspension consumables like the Bilstein options, or are they ready to go like Ground Control and BG?

I am being told that the ST Suspension Kits are Direct Bolt Ons, any additional hardware would be suppled by KW. These are Identical to KW v1's.

iff they are delivered like on the pics, then the topmounts aren't there.

not a big deal though,

The reason why I ask is because a full list of consumables works out to about $450. Sure, not all of that is necessary, but might as well have fresh materials installed. On budget systems like these, $450 makes a big difference.

so i Have to ask... what rides better (in terms of comfort)... KW V1, Bilstein PSS or these?
