vogtland springs(chosen after I couldn't get Eibach Prokits) and Bilstein Sports.

Rear Strut mounts with E36 and E46 M3 parts and the stiffner from a Z3M.

Metal balljoints and Mbushing in the control arms.

Sadly, I don't know...

The suspension was installed when I purchased it so I am not sure what has been installed. I need to get it up on a rack and check it out...



Cheers,
Gadget

I'm considering the Bilsteins and Bav Auto springs. I've got 17's with 235/45 tires to put on in the spring. What size tires are you running with your current rims? How do they ride without the suspension upgrades? Do you have camber issues with the tires/rims you are using?
