Sway bar or Strut Tower brace
I took the 2014 F30 328i out to Auto Cross with the Houston BMW CCA last weekend. I took first place in my group and 10 out of 34 OAL. Not bad for the first time tracking the car. So far the only thing I have done is add the Dinan Exhaust, Dinan springs and bump stops. It was a wet day so really couldn't tell how bad she was pushing in the corners. I have a couple of more points I can play with in the way our groups are set up before bumping into the next Class. I will take a 1 point hit for either a new sway bar or tower strut. Any suggestions would be appreciated. The last vehicle I Auto X’ed was a 2005 C6 Vette with C6 Z06 Suspension under her.

Thanks I've gone with H&R sway bars front and rear. I just ordered APEX ARC-8 18x9 ET42 in Anthracite. I’m looking at Hankook Ventus R-S3 (version 2) in a 255/35 18 if they will fit up front without rubbing. I got the Dinan springs so the car sits 3/4" lower. I'm hoping the shorter tire will keep them from getting cut up. I've read on a thread that they will work with a 10MM spacer. I'll have to try a set and see. they will be for Auto X and HPDE only.
