Question on m3 suspension for your e91
I have a 2010 e91 xdrive and seek to upgrade the oem suspension... Can you share the part numbers you used for control arms, tie rods, end links, sway bars please?

Some subtle upgrades:
-paint matched front lip -new angle eye bulb -LED headlight bulb conversion -new tags!!! the car is so solid. needs nothing other than regular oil change. 220k+ miles and climbing! future plan -ECS tuning front carbon fiber strut brace -LSD (maybe?) -keep driving |

Looks amazing for 220K
Edit: Meant to ask how the Corbeau's are on an extended length drive. NIce they have an inflatable lumbar support. Last edited by M-technik-3; 01-11-2024 at 05:20 AM.. |

thanks! the corbeau seats are fine. it is way harder than OEM since there's almost no padding but the lumbar support helps. I wouldn't go on a cross country road trip in them but i've done 5 hr drive in traffic and it's doable.

Ah Ok, then I will fab some mounts for my SRD's if I go that route. I use them in My E30 M3 and sometimes they see duty in the E36 M3.
Is that a dash camera hanging from the mirror or a radar device? |

Unfortunately my time with this perfect E91 spec has comes to an end. it has been a dream for me to get into a F87 M2 and after month of searching i finally found one and pulled the trigger. since i have no more space in the garage, the E91 has to go.
car has been submitted to cars and bids and hopefully will be live on the site shortly. the race seat was removed and will be transfered to the new OG M2. it's been a fun journy owning the E91 and after driving the OG M2, i still prefer the steering and suspension on my E91. she will be missed... |

LOL, that's one way to go, but I already have multiple cars, and I'd rather see it go to someone who will drive and enjoy it. Also selling it keeps my wife happy and happy wife happy life.
I do love the M2 and am planning to do some upgrades to fix the suspension. it's not a fair comparison since I'm comparing a fully stock car (M2) to a modified one (E91). |
