KONI shock & spring package for E39 525i/528i/530i consists of KONI high performance Active shocks and struts paired with Eibach PRO-Kit lowering springs. The Active shock uses KONI's patented FSD technology to variably and immediately adjust the shock stiffness based on suspension movement. The shock uses a stiff setting on smooth roads or very slow suspension movements (cornering for example) and that gives it more control and better handling. But it automatically switches to a softer setting for rapid suspension movements such as a rough road. This keeps the ride comfortable and not jarring or harsh like a shock with fixed or progressive damping.
Please note: This package is no longer available. Eibach has discontinued the Springs we used in this convenient package. BUT FEAR NOT! We still have H&R Sport lowering springs, and the KONI Active shock set is available in a convenient package.
See related products below. KONI partnered with Eibach to match these shocks with BMW E39 PRO-Kit lowering springs. The PRO-Kit is their least-aggressive spring option that delivers a lower ride height and stance but with more livable spring rates than other performance springs. PRO-Kit springs will lower your center of gravity, reducing squat during acceleration, body roll in corners and excessive nose-dive under braking. But progressive spring rates are chosen to be only a little stiffer than a factory sport spring. There is less of a compromise to the handling than a factory sport suspension yet still a comfortable ride.
