I see a lot of strut bars listed on the forum and available for sale, but rarely do I see mentions of use with an XI. Are strut bars not recommended or less effective on an XI? Are different strut bar models required for the XI or is it the same part number as rwd?
I have a 335 xi with the Eibach Pro Kit and am looking for some cost effective handling mods. Wondering if strut bar is a good next step. Or do I have this all screwed up and mixing up strut bar with sway bar?? Thanks! |

Unless you're tracking the car ALL THE TIME, you'll never get anything out of a brace. While the front end of an xDrive car is stronger due to a different support bracket, the strut towers are identical between xDrive and RWD, so anything should work. |
