Rear Shock Mounts?

Hello everyone, my first post on here. I’ve always been on here as a guest but I finally decided to just make an account. I was wondering what the best option for the rear shock mounts would be. I currently have bilstein pss10. Thank you all!

I did rogue engineering rear shock mounts with my pss10s…no clunks, comes with the reinforcement plates as part of the kit, and makes changing the shocks easier the next time around

Best... how?

Are you talking spherical or rubber?

What's your use case?

Thank you guys for your recommendations. I’m not going to track the car, its just my daily commuter. I’ve heard that stock RSM are horrible though. Especially when paired with coilovers. My current RSM are so wonky, they squeak all the time.

Unless you don't feel like pulling back the trunk carpet to remove the rear damper in the future, factory Lemforder mounts are fine and a third of the price of aftermarket RSMs. I've never seen an E46 rear shock tower failure to justify the reinforcement aftermarket RSMs include. It feels like that was an issue on the E36 which the aftermarket carried over to the E46 just because.

I had issues with my subframe (RACP), so I was forced to strip my rear seats, and the rear trunk carpet. A friend of mine helped me reinforce it with a welded GTR style brace. Perhaps my broken RACP contributed to the destroyed RSM? Anyways, I appreciate the insight guys

I've used Ground Control RSMs, nice thing about them, the nuts attach from the wheel well side, so if you plan on changing shocks again, its a little easier.
