Hello all,
I have a general question regarding suspension upgrades for my '93 318is. I
recently upgraded to 17" rims and noticed big difference in road feel, turn
in response and cornering abilities. However, the car still "plows" the
outside front tire under hard cornering and the body tends to "roll" alot
(of course my point of reference is my friend's '95 M3).
What can I do to improve the handling characteristics of the car? Will an
upper strut-tie-bar reduce the body roll? Should I just upgrade the
suspension with some Dinan springs/shocks/camber plates ($$$). I know that
everything is a compromise and that more performance generally equals less
comfort, but I would still like to install some upgrades.
Thanks,
Mauricio
