Body Roll Fix - Suggestions?

Ladies/Gentlemen -

I appreciate any assistance in advance regarding ridding my F30 (335i MSport) of body roll. First, I know ! I had a hell of a day at the office and I am being lazy right now. On top of that, some jackass in a 328 F30 pulled out in front of me whilst doing 50mph (almost t-boned him)...yes, I just cried myself a river.

My friend has owned 5-6 BMW's over the years and suggested I purchase KW V1/V2 coil overs. I still want the PPK and a new speaker amp, so $1600-$2200 before installation seems a little much right now. I only want to get rid of the roll without dropping it. Any suggestions are welcome!

Thanks!

There is nothing...literally. Just coilovers and springs. Not even a swaybar option yet.

328s rule the road in Irvine and Newport. It's usually the base too. Coilovers it is!

What about a beefy roll bar when it comes out? I believe Eibach has yes to come out with their new one for the F30. ALSO, if you have DHP, will the roll be reduced a great deal?

Do you know when it's expected? That would be preferable. I do not have DHP (forgot to mention that above).

M-performance suspension did the trick for me.

Your car looks beastly!

I am actually ordering the MPS today. I am just waiting for my SA to call me later this morning.
