was the chassis affected or bent in the crash? my e34 is on h&r springs.. sufficient comfort plus straight line stability at speeds in excess of 200kph on our poor highways.

my e34 525i is on 40 mm lowered "Latz" German springs with HD Bilstein shocks & 16" tires.. Bushings are standard

Ride is firm but still comfortable on our pockholed roads. On the highways it has superb stability - even at 200kmph & through sweeping turns (but pl be carefully when driving so far!!). cornering is fantastic

I Had it on 17" rims and the cornering was even better, but ride quality suffered somewhat. generally I feel th 16" suit it better. but if you stand a more jarring ride then the 17" handled superbly with fast lane changes @ 180+ being no problem
