Hi, quick question...im looking for some good, reliable and right coilovers for my M3, i want to have a nice and solid suspension....what brands do you guys reccomend?? ..i was told to stay away from KSport...i was looking at H &R coilovers, TEINs or EIBACH....any suggestions? the car is used for daily driving/ weekend racing....after this im thinking about getting sway bars...or should i just go for a strut tower...or both? again, i want to have an excellent suspension system and it has to be reliable...thanks :)

1) Brand-wise, get a TC Kline or Ground Control setup. 2) Swaybars do not necessarily improve handling. As a matter of fact, many e46 drivers remove their rear-swaybar because they find a little weight transition helps the car corner better.

The most common coilovers I here about are Tein, H &R, and Eibach. I think they are the best brands. If your car is green or white or black, you might want Tein because Tein Coilovers are green and they would match the color of your car. I forget the colors of the other springs. Get sway bars. They are great modifications that improve handling.
