Talking if you had $2000 to spend on suspension

I would buy
1)TEIN coilovers for M3
-because you can adjust the height and damper

2)RACING DYNAMICS Adjustable swaybar kit for M3
-because front sway bar is 27 mm with 3 adjustment points. Rear sway bar is 24 mm with 2 adjustment points.

3)X-brace
because give it better handling

what you think

Is this something that you plan on doing? If you plan to use M3 coil over it would be best to swap the spring back to aftermarket 318ti. The springs that will come with the coil kit are designed to hold an engine that way more then yours, the ride will be pretty tough.

1.) Koni Coils Or Billstien (If you race that is)
2.) RD Or Eibach Sway Bars
3.) Xbrace

I would get KW Variant 3 coil-overs.

Replace bushings with delrin or urethane.
