Shocks are not high on my list of things to do. My next mission is M3 brakes all around
Twix, thanks for the input. It puts me right back on the fence of what I should do, again. LOL. So have you been in an X1 with the KW, m-sport, and your ACS? Sounds like you would rate the ride stiffness as ACS>M-sport>KW. If you had to do it all over and price was not a concern, what would you choose? Then if KW, V1 or V3?
