Back in a BMW!

Hi

I pick up my new car next week. A 2017 335d Msport

I've had an E92 335i and a 123d Msport

Keen to know what mods you guys recoomend for the 335d? Looking at an evolve remap but might hold off until the BMW warantee passes.

What about things like springs? Heard the ACS springs are a great investment?

Im thinking more performance mods than looks, its already got alloys, msport style kit, boot spoiler etc.

When i had the 335i the JB4 (think thats what its called) was really popular?

How many miles does your car have?

What are your priorities: more power, more sporty suspension without compromising comfort ...

Budget range would be helpful.

PS. Yes - pictures add to the experience as suggested by deviantspeed

Its been so long since ive used a forum! Hopefuly the pic below has worked.

14,200 miles.

"more sporty suspension without compromising comfort"

Id say this to be honest, not that bothered about a remap just yet. I havent even got the car yet. I did noticed on the test drive it didnt feel as planted as the E92 i had

Very nice car!

I'd say second pic, with the 437m's

The 405m's have always looked abit like tacky aftermarkets IMO.

Each to their own though

Beautiful car. Congratulations!

If the second picture reflects OEM 19" 437M wheels, my vote is in.

Both are reps, both are 20's

At first i liked the second set, the 5 spokes.

But the more i looked at it the more i changed my mind to the others

Im torn

Both sets of wheels have their merits. The first set is a bit busier which is nice on such a solid color/tinted f30. Kinda of ads that extra bit of flare. The second set being less busy and more simple is also nice in that it keeps in balance with the cars overall vibe. Because of their size they both provide a nice aggressive look...

... so I think for these reasons, you're just gonna have to buy them both mate

1st set, always loved the 405s.
If you are looking for the ultimate F series mod, have you thought about the B58 mod?
