F10 535i suspension

Hello Members

I went from a E39 540 with H&R sports with Bilstein and loved them

I then bought a f30 335i and installed H&R sport springs and liked them but a little bouncy than I like.

I recently bought a 2014 535xi m-sport and realized that there is no sport suspension with xi models which really sucked

I also notice there are no coilover option with xi models...


I would like to eliminate some body roll and wanted to know what would be my best option?
What are the best springs out there.
any input would be helpful

Some thoughts between ACS vs H&R springs and where to buy them?

Why did you choose AWD?

The F30 was every bit fun compared to the F10, One thing that is lacking in the F30 is quality, when sitting in the F10 you really can appreciate the car in terms of quality and solidness. The F10 feels more stable then the F30,but really needs springs to eliminate some of that body roll.

Ordered ACS springs, they did not come with the rubber inserts, I asked the reps at ACS and was told that the issue is fixed and no need for inserts anymore. Dealer will be doing the install soon.

Will both F & R m5 sway bars fit the F10 535 xdrives??
And is there a DIY for this?

Only the front M5 sway bar fits, rear won't fit.
I uses the rear sway bar from the M550d.
