My 318i has the stock suspension and my 328i has been lowered 2" front and 1.75" in the rear. The shocks are new front and back, a no name brand I don't
even remember. They aren't performance shocks but slightly thicker than stock.
I like the lowered look and how it handles. It is a little harsh over bumps.

The 318i is the stock height. The ride has a little more "float" to it but def more
comfortable over the bumps. I am looking for a good cheap set up. Maybe something similar to what I have on the 328i. They both are daily drivers and
will never see the track unless someone drives one of them to the track to see my ride my GSXR (crotch rocket) lol.

Any suggestions on a good CHEAP set up for the 318i?

Thanks
