Improve general feeling of the 335i

adrian_j · 03-04-2022, 01:21 AM

I have owned a few 335i’s and have never done handling mods, after driving an m5 today I’m curious if I can make my 335i e92 more responsive to steering and maybe have less roll? I’ve never done handling mods so excuse my lack of knowledge. Stock wheels and suspension. Thanks!

Coilovers with the spring rates of your choice will go a long, long ways. I would recommend something like 6k f / 12k r for a street car. Adjustable plates will add some NVH but also a bit of sharpness and precision. M3 control arms up front. Upgraded rear subframe bushings. It can be a slippery slope, but it can very much be done and depending on how far you want to take it, it can be as sharp and nimble as you want.
