Once the stock bushings start to wear out, these items would be a good upgrade, but for a new platform like the e90, I'd argue that they would produce any tangible difference.
Thanks for the input. You can't seriously recommend improving the driver instead of "improving" the car???!! Blasphemy!!

The only major upgrade I'll do are the solid subframe bushings. Otherwise all seems fine.
Good info. I was thinking of getting some toe links.

Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."
