Bmw 135i Performance Chassis

[Dean ///M]

Gents, I need some help regarding the dampers/struts offered in this Perf.suspension package. #33 50 0 444 831. Is the stock dampers on my 135i (M Sport suspension..as std) not the same as the performance dampers. I checked out the parts numbers & they are different. But what brings about doubt is that the sway bar is the same diameter as stock 26.5mm. Also with the Perf. Brake kit it's the exact same caliper used just sprayed in another colour. Cos if the dampers are the same then I will only order the Perf. springs...will save me alot of money...

Interesting questions.

1. I thought the shocks (dampers) and springs are brand new in the performance suspension package.

2. I also thought the swaybars are new & "different" and "performance" bars compared to stock or the "sport" bits.

3. I ordered my 335 in 2009 with the performance swaybars & performance arms...I did not order the performance shocks & springs as part of the suspension because I intended to swop it out for the Bilstein kit, which I subsequently did.

4. Revo and I have also discovered there are parts on my car which is not part of the LCI range, like most of the LCI's on the road. So my part numbers will not be the same as most...maybe they built an //M car and changed their mind during the build process...hehee

5. I agree with you if the dampers and swaybars are the same as the stock, sport parts than just settle on the performance springs.
