Will this suspension upgrade fit my 335xi??

cshawkeye · 07-20-2010, 08:11 PM

Guys, I have a 2007 335xi and I am picking up the ZSP oem sports suspension off the forums: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=409283

Just wanted to know before paying for them that they will fit on my car without any issues?? I already upgraded to the Style 189 wheels and wanted to add some better suspension performance without breaking the bank to my ride.

I found one post that said everything would fit except the front shocks, so we might be out of luck. Maybe someone can confirm?

Front struts are not interchangable.

ok but the springs will work though??

for that money your better off getting a setup for an XI, the non XI sport package is not compatible with the XI, and there are better options for you.

Drop me a PM if you guys need help

No, incorrect spring weight.

Well, now we know. It looks like there would be quite a few better options for your XI than my sport suspension.

Sure, I'm sure you can get it to fit as if there's a will there's a way. But why go through all the trouble? The answer is simple, you get what you pay for when it comes to vehicle suspension. As such a crucial component of your vehicle, suspension is definitely something you do not want to cheap out on.

A coilover suspension basically gives you a matched lowering spring and shock absorber combination with the added benefit of adjustable ride height and spring rates through a moveable spring perch or perches. Coilovers are to your car's advantage by reducing unsprung mass, increasing suspension travel, and allowing the car to be corner balanced. I'll shoot you over a PM with more details!
