			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Make: BMW<br />
Model: E36 328i<br />
Year:  1997<br />
What  is your driving style: Hard Performance Driver<br />
Vehicle Setup: Rear Wheel  Drive<br />
Suspension Type: Regular Shocks or Struts<br />
Question:</p>
<p>I would like to install better shocks  and springs on my E36 328 1997 BMW.  But, I DO NOT WANT TO LOWER MY  CAR.</p>
<p>What are the shocks and springs that I should  use?</p>
<p>Or, what are the shocks and spring that would lower my car  the minimal as  possible?</p>
<p>I am just interested in better  handling and a little harder shocks than  OEMs.</p>
<p>Thanks a  lot.</p>
<p>The only springs we carry for your car are designed to lower it, but  they  will only lower the vehicle by about 1.5 inches.  You can see  those  here:<br />

If  you&#8217;re interested in just replacing your struts, we also carry  Bilstein  Sport struts and shocks, which you can see along with all of  the parts we  offer for your car, here:<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The AP just ran a story that in the NY area they have found that rising oil prices are making road repairs more expensive. Since asphalt is made from an oil based binder of stones and other materials, the price to repair roads has gone way up, like 40% since last year. And as this article shows, with our roads getting less repairs, the condition of your shock absorbers becomes more important if you want a nice ride to work.</p>
<p>If these issues are showing up in discussions in the NY area, you can bet they will be showing up in towns and cities across the country. With the current economic situation fewer people are looking to <a target="_blank" href="http://www.pricewheels.com" title="buying a new car">research and buy a new car</a>, repairs of existing cars and trucks are looking alot more cost effective. Be sure to check out our full line of replacement <a target="_blank" href="http://www.Shockwarehouse.com" title="buy new shocks and struts">shocks and struts </a>to keep you riding smoother during harder times.</p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoPlainText"><font face="Consolas">OK, I am very hard on cornering and turns. I tend to take corners faster than most people so there seems to be a lot of times where it feels like my cars are making an effort to hold the corners or curves.</font></p>

<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoPlainText"><font face="Consolas">I am ready soon to purchase some for the 1990 Audi 100. Based on how I normally drive in these situations would you recommend the more performance oriented shocks, like the Bilstein Heavy Dutys or the KYB Gasajust? or the standard oe replacement type like the Bilstein Touring Class TC or the Monroe Sensatracs?</font></p>
<p><strong>ANSWER:</strong></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoPlainText"><font face="Consolas">For performance, you want to use a monotube design &#8211; </font><a href="http://www.shockwarehouse.com/site/glossary.cfm"><font color="#0000ff" face="Consolas">http://www.shockwarehouse.com/site/glossary.cfm</font></a></p>
<p><font face="Consolas"> </font></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoPlainText"><font face="Consolas">That would be a Bilstein HD / Sport, or a KYB Gasajust unit.</font></p>
<p style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoPlainText"><font face="Consolas">There are some mechanical reasons that make a Bilstein slightly better than the Gasajust</font></p>
