Coilovers, decision time to take advantage of Black Friday

Hello guys , there are some black Friday deals on and I have thinking about coilovers for a while, for my M4 comp pack.

Ohlins R&T £2200
Bilstein B16 PSS10 Damping Adjustable Coilover Suspension Kit £1,432.80

Ohlin's R&T and code out your EDC. That's what i found most comfortable. I had KW HAS before and the Ohlins is night and day difference in every aspect vs the KW HAS

But why not plug and play Bilstein Damptronic?

I actually never tried Bilstein. I couldn't find that many reviews on it so i went with Ohlins. I don't think it gets more comfortable than the Ohlins R&T and i daily drove an S550 coupe while my M4 was being worked on.

Bilstein is super popular in Europe and OEM supplier. Big plus you keep your stock EDC which is a huge benefit in my eye.

I thought about the Bilstein EDC dampers too. But with a higher price, heavier steel construction, no possibility to finetune the damper setting yourself, no DFV-valve and the possibility to adjust the height of the car by lowering the whiole strut and keep suspension travel made me go with Öhlins.
