Question about 135i to M3 Suspension
I am using front and rear H&R sway bay and H&R Premium Coilover kits on my 2008 135i. Now I am thinking to upgrade my stock Suspension to M3 Suspension. And try to keep the cost lower
![]() Here is my some question. -Is it necessary to change the rear coilover for using BMW OEM M3 Rear Lower Camber Link Conversion Kit -Can I keep the sway bay to work with the M3 Suspension? -Is it really big difference between stock and M3 Suspension? Thanks a lot |

Just the rear dampers/shocks. Spring is the same. -Can I keep the sway bay to work with the M3 Suspensive? Yes, although the M3 sways can do wonders for handling on your car. -Is it really big difference between stock and M3 Suspensive? Yes, big difference in terms of material used, geometry and bearings instead of soft rubber bushings or simply higher durometer bushings. |

you guys also have a full kit that you sell that is a full M3 suspension swap.
How long does it take to install all the components? and how much is the labor on that kind of a job?
