The B4 is essentially a great OEM replacement. I forgot how well my 135i drove when it was brand new...

For a lot of you who are higher mileage and haven't refreshed your suspension bits, I'd highly recommend considering the B4 Sports for your 128i or "regular" B4 for 135i.

Regular B4 for 135i because there is only one version of the B4 part number for 135i in Bilsteins catalogue. This is already the "sport" even though there's only one part number as ALL 135i's came with M-Sport suspension. LMK if you want more clarity here. Perhaps, my explanation is no good as I typed this up in a storm.
I was originally thinking of going Koni FSD (red) but I gotta give the b4's some thought now.

Thanks!
