6 Series
The BMW 6 Series builds on BMW's sporty heritage with aggressive lines and an incredible motor to back the design up. Available in coupe and convertible trims with a standard 4.8 liter engine producing 360 horsepower and 360 lb-ft of torque, the 6-series is a popular choice that exceeds expectations.

Fk highsport coilovers

Ok I had a set of h&r springs ordered but it looks as though it's not happening now so I might have to start shopping again.

I have come across a set of fk highsprt coilovers for my 6 however does anyone have any reviews with these to help me decide if I should or not buy them?

I don't know how good they are if at all?

Any ideas?

FK is one of the major German suspension companies. The Highsport line is their starter level coilovers which are non-adjustable and sell for less than what it would cost to replace your shocks with OEM struts. The Highsport will not last as long as higher-end coilovers which have stainless steel housings (like the FK Silverline or something from KW)

If you are looking at ordering new I would try to get the Silverlines for a few dollars/pounds more.
