Post Adaptive Suspension 2015 F30 328i Xdrive

Hi All

Excited to be a part of the community. I custom ordered my 328 back in 2015. It has M aero kit, M Brakes, and the adaptive suspension. I have never really fully appreciated the adaptive suspension. So, with 89K miles I have decided it was time to modifiy this car. I am in need of replacing control arms all around and figured I would replace the shocks at the same time. I am leaning towards Bilstein Coilovers (B14).

Question is what coilovers should I buy for my car? I am looking for really good street performance. Will not track the car.

Thx all - great to be a part of this awesome community.

I'd recommend getting the Dinan Shockware software update for the active suspension. It made a huge difference on my car when I did it.

I'm running stock, so I cannot comment on replacements.

I agree. My 2014 328 with DHP (adaptive suspension) was blah until I got Dinan Shockware. That, plus getting rid of run flat tires, transformed the car. Totally happy with it now.

OP, look into Dinan Shockware as an option. I know all wheel drive has a bit of a different suspension than my rear wheel drive so I can't make an exact comparison with your setup, but Dinan Shockware is amazing.
