Got a pair of B6 rear shocks installed to my 2014 335i xdrive today. Stock front struts (800 mls old replaced by dealer recently) + stock springs + OEM continental run flat 34psi Front/ 38psi Rear. Initial 40 miles impression is very positive: the rear feels much more stable over bump at I-95 / NYC street. Ride is tighter it feels almost the same as 2017 330i xdrive over the same 40 miles drive. It also improves the steering response the whole car feels more lively at slow speed (similar to LCI 4 series). There is no change in amount of body roll during hard corning (as expected) but it feels more confident inspiring / less body roll for highway overtake (quick left -> right / right -> left move).
Going to install B6 front struts + AC Schnitzer Springs to complete the upgrade in the next 1-2 weeks.
