What to replace next?

Car has KWv3 coil overs setup on it, what is the next suspension upgrade to look at? Car feels like it has a fair amount of body roll when taking hard corners. 15 335i m sport, daily driven but some track/tail of the dragon runs.

for body roll, front and rear sways aka ARB's. choose diameters based on damper compression and rebound. bigger is not always better, it's about balance. there are numerous threads/posts here about sways/ARB that you can get information from, with the best informational posts provided by johnung and FaRKle!, imo...installation is labor intensive(dropping sub-frame) and is typically a large part of the cost of installing sways/ARB's.

for steering precision and feel, VAC monoball upper and lower control arms. i would think you'd really appreciate this on a course like tail-of-the-dragon.

KW V3 coilovers have independently adjustable compression and rebound controls. What settings did you try?

These coilovers can be set to reduce body roll into a fairly stiff category.
