That's odd... I don't know of any other options other than springs at the moment. I wonder why the V3s don't work for the E90.

You can run the H&R Street Performance Coilover for the E90 M3s. Let me know if you need assistance with pricing.

Yes thats right, the E90 is the same as the E92 suspension.

If you have a cabrio or EDC is what you need to be careful of. The Cabrio - has different valving. EDC or non-EDC vehicles have a different module as well.

sr2003 - let us know if you need a local pickup - Rosmead is pretty close by.

Another Coilover option is the Cross Coilover - they are a very nice setup - but currently no EDC setup from them.

You should swing by our shop, we have a set of V2s on Jon's car as well as a set of V2s on display so you can check them out in person.

Tyler, can be setup to a stock setup feek. The difference being very sure footed, some would describe it as riding on rails. Plus its lower so the benefits are obviously there as well. Keep in mind its completely configurable to how soft or how still you want it with the V3 for the M3.

We helped out sr2003 with a set for his E90 M3 and a great price! Let us know if we can help out would love to.
