Question 2007 335i non-sport package suspension

I'm new to the forum and and been tirelessly searching to forums to find the best option to tighten the suspension up to zsp or better. I was thinking coilovers but wanted to get some input as far as the best option available and any experience for modding the suspension on a non-zsp 335i sedan...thanks in advance.

Well.....I think there are several questions that you need to ask yourself:

1. How much are you willing to spend?

2. What's the purpose behind your suspension upgrade? ie. Are you tracking the car or just want some tighter suspension for spirited driving from time to time?

3. Do you care about height adjustability? Strut dampening/rebound adjustability?

I think if you can answer these questions, you'll have a good starting point.

Hope this will get you started......

$2k? hmmmm......Bilstein PSS10, KW V2, Eibach Multi-link Pro R1, H&R coilover.....I'm sure there are other options out there, but these are probably the most reputable?

I went with PSS10s because of the ease of adjusting front and rear struts without any tools, or lifting of the car to get access to the adjustment, especially on the rear, which is hard to find.
