Let's have a coilovers - springs - shocks discussion!

Anyone have seen these over at Turner? They have sent an email and wondered if any have gotten a chance to check them out. no specs yet online but wondering about spring rates or if they are upgradable to swift springs.

hello everyone, I have a BMW 328i e90 with the M sport suspension package. I've recently bought new suspension the Koni Red special active suspension; part number 87451014 R&L. I am having a problem with clearance on the fender, the new shocks are about 1 to a 1/2 inch off. was wondering if anyone has any tips, I've loosened both control arms and I'm as well releasing the tie rod end to get more clearance. have yet to get the tie rod off, however was wondering if there are any ideas? did I buy the wrong suspension? I'm not sure and would appreciate the help thank you.

Not looking to spend an outrageous amount. Just something that feels good, at a reasonable price.
