The cornering clunk - no, I'm not sure. But the only thing back there that isn't stock is the tire repair kit. It's not a BMW battery, and didn't fit perfectly under the clamp, so I guess it could be shifting a bit.

The brake clunk is definitely a brake clunk - stuck caliper or piston probably. I ran across the brass bushing kit on BavAuto and wondered if that was a simple, cheap upgrade that I should do that might resolve this.

And on the Bilsteins - I guess it's just the fronts that are expensive - I didn't look closely enough. And to be fair, I'm comparing them to the BHD's that I put on the Jeep, which were about $250 for the set. But they're all shocks in that case. The rears for the BMW are much more reasonably priced.
