this copy and paste is from Alpina B7 review :

The suspension's coil springs have different rates than the stock 7 Series and the ride height is 0.6 inch lower in front and 0.4 inch in the rear.
so far I had NOT find any tuner/suspension company that sells (shocks and springs) kits for the new 7 Series.
so I think there are no shocks available for new 7 series yet...
if anybody have any info regarding aftermarket
performance shocks for the new 7 series please post here.
Oh by the way, the only company that I knew
change the damping value of the shocks is
Alpina for their Alpina B7.
Hamman, Hartge, ACS, RDsport, do not have
any replacement shocks only springs...
Although I am sure if you have no limit with your budget, you can always custom
install Moton or Ohlin (or other exotic racing shocks) and used it for 7 Series... |
Thanks for your detailed reply. I would prefer just to swap the springs as I use the car nearly everyday and it would be more for looks than anything else. I could end up with Hamann since it's just springs thsat they offer and what I prefer, however I dont want it to drop so much. Can I just change the front springs?
