its up to you man.

i am just telling you my experience on my 335.

i have used all of the following on either m3's or 335i or 135i

-ST v1 on my 335i
- HR springs on 335i with bmw performance dampers
-eibach with koni shocks on e46 m3
-PSS10 on e46 m3
-TCK S/A on e46 m3
-eibach pro system kit on 135i

By far the two best setups were the TCK and the Eibach pro system kit. The TCK was amazing for handling, and rode quite well as well. Going back, id do the D/A setup next time because it improves the ride signficantly over the S/A.

That said, the Eibach pro system kit was better imo for a dd with limited or no track time (like me for example, 4 or so track days per year). It rides great and gives the car a great look. It improves handling a touch, but mainly gives you that stock feel while being a little lower.

Ideally, to truly improve handling on a budget, IMO a system like the eibach pro system kit combined with m3 suspension parts would likely be the best option.

Just my two cents from experiencing all of the above setups. I would not consider any of the other products in the class of the two i mentioned.

Take it fwiw
