BMW performance suspension consists of what parts?
Ok is the "BMW Performance susension kit" just springs? They don't give a good detail of what you get. Some help here...

Looks like (in Europe at least) the package includes springs, dampers and anti roll bars...

I figured it out... the "BMW Performance suspension" is:
-BMW Perf Shocks & Struts -Bump stops -Springs (10mm lower than factory sport springs) -Front sway bar -Misc hardware I'll probably do that kit and do the M3 rear sway bar and call it a day.

This is correct. I would not do the M3 rear sway bar, it is to big for that suspension. I did autox with my car and the BMW PS and M3 front bits, and LSD; and the rear bar caused to much overstear, I had it taken off and it was an expensive experiment.

Thanks for that feedback about the M3 rear roll bar. The OP would be wise to head your suggestion

335iSSA- How did the front M3 bits (Tension and control arms) do? Did you do any rear M3 suspension parts? I was just going to do the rear Sub frame M3 Bushings and front arms.

I liked the BMW PS, but if I had it to do again I would have gone with Koni Sports and springs of your choice. I thought the drop on the BMW kit was perfect and it was a good value. Koni extended their sale to Labor day so the Yellows are 20% off! |

^ I think I'm going the BMW PS route. Skip the rear M3 bushings and do the M3 front arms call it a day. Much appreciated feed back.
