Anyone tried Koni's Yellow with Eibach springs? How good is this match?

Pretty good for rear. For out of the box setup, cannot complain. Only downside is it is a twintube so not servicable

I still prefer bilstein ..

Sorry guys, i must say that you have not experience properly setup titans. No doubt can be frustrating and time consuming..

If you have ever understand what is in a b8, you will undrstand you are not getting any less in a titan.
 
I agree with Alan.....

3 months back, I bought a brand new set of Bilstein B8 for my E34 matched with H&R sport spring.

The rear was ok but I was having nightmare with the front. The front bottomed out and hit the absorber rubber stopper so easily. Even minor little potholes also will hit the stopper. This combination completely removed the driving pleasure out of my car.

I had to look for a solution. I went over to Titan Suspension coz I was hearing some good feedbacks from many people including Alan.

After Titan test drove my car, he concluded that the fault lies in the design of my front Bilstein B8. He said my springs were ok.

Not familiar with Titan, I thought it was wise just to try out the front first to see if the product is really that good.

The end result was.... FANTASTIC !!!!! It was firm, yet comfort and all my problem solved. Titan took me for a test drive with the new front setup. The car now handles so well and I can even go through bumps without braking and still it wont touch the stopper. Steering response is sharper and so much nicer to drive. The shocks are servicable.

Depending on your liking, Titan can customise the setting. If the setting comes out not to your liking, then he will take it out and redo the setting until you like it. This is something you dont get from off the shelves product.

Guys.... I was having the same mindset as some of you here that imported, expensive, branded products are always good. I was so wrong.

I learned it though the expensive and hard way. I should have went for Titan in the first place. I am so happy about Titan and I am going back there this week to get my back absorber done.

Anyway... the choice is yours and my 3 months old Bilstein B8 still under warranty is for sale.

Hi bro Alan & Julian,

Thanks.

Good to hear that bro, at least there's a workable option to b8. So you running Titan with H&R? How's the drop? Do you have any pic? What's the price like? Do they have model for e46? Contact details pls? thanks
 
they are custom builders so any models can be done.

the price... will not be anymore than sach or koni twintube. trust me. do not get the coilover option. use back what ever spring that you have on your car now..

without spring.. price ranges from 2.4k to 2.8K i think.

I just came back from Titan just now since nothing much to do in office. Yes... I got my rear done today.

My front pair --> 1300 (non adjustable)
My rear pair --> 1200 (adjustable high low)

Now it handles even better. The car is even more planted now.

As for ride height, I specifically told Titan that I wanted to maintain my low ride height as per last time with H&R & Bilstein. I used back my H&R spring with Titan shockers. I got the ride height I asked for.

I took some pics just now at Titan while I was getting my rear abs done. I will post the pics later tonight.

thanks for the useful info guys, probably go down the same route in a very near future, need to lower the car a wee bit and also wanna be able to take on cornering with added confidence.

Maintain your ori spring. Titan can lower your even with ori spring.
 
Here are some pics I took at Titan earlier today.


Before the rear B8 was taken out.
