Does it have sports seats, sport steering wheel, etc? The package is termed "ZSP". If you don't have it you want it, depending on how violent NYC potholes are on your back.

I believe this is on the VIN plate on inside the drivers door or under the hood. Not sure which but it is one of those.

IMO the best solution here unless you are anal about sticking with BMW parts is to get higher quality Swift springs. Surely Harold can recommend a good match. Broken record here, different strokes for different folks etc., but I would strongly recommend against "dropping" the car for appearance. The point of a BMW is the handling. Why fu#%^ up the engineered design of the suspension? Do it right.

Do these fit an E92? I know KW coilovers are interchangeable from E90/92 (non-xi of course) because I'm running E90 V1's on my E92 right now but thinking about going for a "simpler" OEM set up. TIA!
Edit: According to RealOEM, both the E92 and E90 performance suspension (the whole package including sway bar) is part no 33500444832. If this is true, this clearance set up should also work for E92's. Thinking about ordering to find out.

my car is running the perf struts with perf yellow springs setup and i can barely tell if there's any drop on it. most people told me to drop it more by putting in some coilcover. i was thinking there's gotta be a reason why bmw engineered their suspension setup at certain height. and doesn't like generic aftermarket suspension, bmw perf has different springs design for different setup ie auto/manual, coupe/sedan etc.

Was thinking of doing the same. I'm currently at 22k miles. At what approx mileage does stock stuff "get soft"?

It is hard to say an exact mileage, as so much of it likely depends on how the car has been driven. But, if it is daily driver that sees a mix of crummy urban streets and highways I would say 50-60k would be the time to replace your struts and shocks. Not saying the old stuff would really be completely worn out at this point, but they would definitely have loosened up a bit.

What's the difference between this version and the NEW version mentioned in the description?

Does anyone know if this will fit E92? I need a new rear shock because mine is blown and this package is about the same price of a single shock alone.

What $133.06!?!? That's not everyday price for an entire oem performance suspension kit. One aftermarket performance shock/strut cost more. If anyone finds it cheaper anywhere else, please inform the rest of us.

Are you sure it wont fit the E92? Because on the link you posted above, it said that the E92 kit is compatible with the E90. So theoritically this kit should fit too, correct?
