I have the Whiteline adjustables also. What kind of noise are you hearing? I get the occasional click when backing up a slight incline. Really not sure if it's the endlinks or my brake pads ( have Akebono's which are known to click in E90's)

Did you adjust the endlinks by loosening the top & bottom adjuster nuts then turning them until you felt little to no resistance? Car has to be in loaded position for this - I use a pair of wheel cribs.

Good!

I really noticed a handling / feel difference with properly adjusted endlinks. Now considering some for the rear ARB but choices are a bit limited.

Please hey back to me as i wanna see if i only go shocks and springs instead of coilovers since i dont track.. essentially i would like to make it ..more performance without making the ride rougher... if this is a upgrade to the m sport suspension i would love to b at this price point.. are these sturdy?? Does tuis provide more performance??
Would really love some kore homework on suspension / sway combo for street / obviously better than stock but not tracking performance...
Would like the ability to hang with the mire tuned cars without going crazzy!!!!
Give us an update on how these feel .. how majy kiles on your stock shocks and what are they oem .. m sport?

Thanks for your contribution

If you think it is so serious, why not give money you obviously dont need since you are spending it on toys to the food bank? Mine is going to the mortgage, gas, and food bank. Dont judge people till you walk a mile in their shoes.

This thread reminds me of the people I grew up with. mom would cook for them, do their laundry, and practically wipe their arse. If they worked at all it went to the toys.

This thread reminds me of car enthusiasts in a car enthusiast forum discussing what they'd like to buy (or did buy) for their cars and sometimes dreaming of what they'd like to buy for their cars and just having some fun while trying to be distracted during a very difficult time. Nothing wrong with that in my opinion.

Yea idk what this guys problem is... the government sent check to everyone .. even people that dont work... without asking... without asking if u need it or not?? Obviously , this is more of a .. heres money shut up about ur situation.. how i decide to blow my gift money is on me..
Wether that be on food or toys.. i mean doesnt he make that decision every pay check?? Whats different here??
Plus if ur such a tree hugger.. again... why do u drive. 2 door coupe wich essentially is a money pit.. when u could be "giving back"
And driving lets say.. a hybrid.. or maybe sell ur extra car(1er) dont tell me you daily with the oner having a full fledged fam u gotta spend ur check to support...
So again..complete and utter fail tommm .. you sir are whinney and pompous!! Goo day sir!!!! I said..... GOOD DAY!!!
