A buddy is in need of shocks (and tires) for his '06 M35.

Price is a consideration, so what have you guys found out there that's a nice deal?

Thanks all!

Tell your friend to ask for Dan McKenna with www.boosted-racing.com tell him i referred you Cory Fournier. He will hook him up with shocks i used KYB's and then bought all new wheels and tires from him.

I also had to replace the front shocks on the 35.
Went with KYB 341441/341442 on ebay from sellers with good reviews. I believe the parts were around $150 total if I remember correctly. My mechanic installed them for an hour's worth of labor. The ride was bumpy at first, but they broke in nicely after a little while.


For tires, unless if I come across a better deal, I usually got to DiscountTireDirect.com and have one of their local store match the advertised price.

Those part numbers were for the front... left and right.
I don't have any knowledge on the awd suspension parts. I've only had rwd sport models.

InfinM3506, is the "burnt orange" noted above another name for the discontinued beautiful Bourbon they used to make?

Did you have to use camber screws when you put on the eibach springs or not necessary?
