I have the Koni Special Active on my '08 328xi. I installed them at about 95K miles; my apparently original shocks were leaking. Less body roll in fast corners. My expired shocks were mushy, so these feel a bit stiffer.
Pros: less body roll, stiffer feel
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 152887 km
The StopTechs Sports are the better track and street option, I used the front pads in my E46 M3 for 10k+ street miles and a few trackdays. They have good feel and modulation. Just had a little bit of fade towards the end of a 25 minute session.
Pros: good feel, good modulation, street and track option
Cons: some fade
Vehicle:
BMW
Mileage: 16093 km
I installed stock(unmodified) Bilstein B4 shocks/struts on my 2017 REX with 19” wheels and the improvement was noticeable. Overall the ride was less unsettled and bouncy.

The Pirelli PZero AS Plus 3 are a nice performance A/S tire that I just mounted to my G30 5 series. Not sure what your use case is, but those are more on the performance side of the A/S market and might be overkill for a daily commuter.
Pros: nice performance
Cons: might be overkill

The first time I put Michelin Pilot Supersports on my E92 BMW I was awestruck. Not only were those tires amazing, but they were replacing runflats which were garbage in any metric besides their ability to run flat which I never used.
Pros: amazing tires
Cons: runflats were garbage

The initial bite is really, really good on the street, and the pads feel very good. I never had issues with overheating.
The life of the front pads, however, wasn't very impressive to me. I got about 8 months of daily driving (75% highway miles), 20-30 canyon runs (roughly 35 minutes each) + 2 trackdays (my 2nd and 3rd ever) out of them. I had to cut my 3rd trackday short because the wear sensor came on, and then within 10 minutes, the front pads were metal-metal with the rotor, and I went off into the dirt.
Pros: good bite, good feel
Cons: short life, metal-metal

During Covid a lot of brand new genuine BMW parts had some issues so I had to change my radiator twice, was covered by BMW dealer after loads of back and forth. (There’s two part numbers for B48 engine main radiators and the dealer said the part number used was not meant for the car but the other radiator clearly wouldn’t fit)
Cons: parts had issues, changed twice

I recently purchased a 2024 330i M-Sport a little over a month ago and it seems my car attracts rocks or something because my windshield is covered in these tiny little chips. I thought it was dirt or something at first; but, after close inspection, they are indeed chips. I’ve had cars that have gone through hell and back without any damage at all. I’ve been taking it relatively easy on the car, just commuting to work and back just for this to happen so soon. If it keeps going at this rate, it’s gonna accumulate so many that it’s gonna bother the shit out of me more than it does now and I’m gonna want to replace it.
Cons: chips easily, fragile
