It's going to be interesting this time around. Now that we have the 135i that has had virtually all the suspension upgrades done and have a 335i (Msport) you can really tell the difference between the two in regards to the ride and handling.

The 135i feels racing and edgy while definitely having a rougher ride. Although in all fairness I think even if it was stock vs stock the 135i would be a rougher ride.

Thus far on the 335i the only suspension upgrade has been the front sway bar for testing. It's a Whiteline and we'll probably swap it our for an E92 M3 sway bar. I liked the E93 one better on our E88 but thought I'd give the Whiteline a try. As mentioned we have the Whiteline RSFB inserts and new replacement bushings to try on this car. It needs them pretty bad...the rear end is way to soft for my liking. However we're going to keep this one a bit more mild in terms of ride quality.

We'll try to remember to update and provide more info/pics as we go.
