Best Suspension Mod

Hello guys,

What would be the best bang for your buck suspension mod on the F82 that can improve steering feel and how hard this car can corner?

Where would one start without resorting to full coilovers?

Thrust arm monoballs. I ran Ohlins for a while and still didn’t feel confident with the feel I got through the steering wheel. I then upgraded to the turner monoball bushings and it completely delivered what I was looking for. Steering feels amazing. I cane from a 991 Porsche and how it feels now is right on par with what the Porsche felt

No I was doing research and the mod promised to do what I was looking for. I ordered them already assembled so the installation was easy and I can swap them out with my stock ones when I sell the car

Have you recently checked your tire pressures. I have found that having tire pressure set at the proper PSI improves both ride and handling. I stick w/ the BMW recommended 32 psi for all 4 corners.

If you can only do one thing, camber plates for sure!

After that, I say Front thrust arm bushings and perhaps adjustable rear camber and toe arms.
