340i RWD Adaptive M suspension+ M LCA/TS + Eibach Prokit

Hey guys, last and final question.
I've got the M LCA/TA not installed yet just sitting in my trunk. Im waiting for the eibach springs to come in and give to my mechanic to install everything.

I told him to replace the M TS bushings with Oem f30 bushings
I've read somewhere that if you do that you don't need spacers?

But anyways, can someone lead me in the right direction of what's the best route to take so there is no tire rub or anything.

If you replace the M TS with stock bushings then I don't see the reason to have bought the M arms. Just to get -0.3° more camber and a higher chance of rubbing the fender liner? The reason you upgrade is for the bushings.

Looks like this is the same as with the M springs. What are you trying to do/gain?

I'm trying to gain more feel with the car and take away the dead center feel/ better turn in
So do you suggest me leaving the f80 bushings in and doing spacers? If so would 10mm spacers be sufficient?

The spacers would depend on what wheels you are running. If you only wanted the feel it would have been better to replace the bushings in the stock arms.

I'm running 19"s 255's rear and 225's front

And well I already have the entire kit so do you recommend going with spacers?

Wheels, not tires. Spacers move the wheels farther out. No one can comment if spacers will help without knowing your wheel specs.
