fronts are self explanatory and the only technical part about the rear is that you need to remove the soft top shelf in the trunk...

Heard great things about Bilstein in general, esp the PSS series, people seem to love them. Did they come with new RSMs or did you go with the E46xi versions or the Rogue?

Had the PSS10's on my 997 and they were terrific. You will not be disappointed.

I had Bilstein's PSS coilover kit on my E46. I loved the setup. I too bought Bilsteins for the warranty but I never had to put any warranty claims. (I also drove on Boston roads)

Also surprised you didn't consider GC or TCK. Barney with all your new toys, you will have the best track car PARKED outside your apt.

Why don't you actually get your money's worth and bring her out to the track?! =D

I had PSS on my E36, and I loved them. However, I think the general consensus on them is that they the best coilover for the street, but that there are better choices if you see a lot of track time.

I really digg the adjustment knob on the bottom of the PSS10, no more ripping apart the trunk to make adjustments. =)

Can you please post pictures of the PSS10 you are installing?

PSS10 for the e46 M3 is different than the Z4M ones, as the e46 one has some helper springs and looks different no?

Did you happen to measure the PSS10 at max height? I'm interested to know how much lower than stock the PSS10 is at max.
