I have EDC and want to keep it, but I want a lower and better handling car without losing edc.

People keep talking about expensive coil overs but as far as I know there are no edc options?

What's best?

MSS from Evolve
Billstein B6 stock or perhaps the custom build Evolve is designing?

What about Dinan springs and ride comfort kit?
I've read mixed results on KW HAS kit.

Just want to dial it in for track use, and I've been told the suspension arms, tierods, and bushings are still very tight. 134,000KM

Ideally I want to corner balance the vehicle as I've done a lot of weight reduction on the rear.

If cost isn't a factor? May I present to you TracTive suspension.



They make'em for the E92 M3 as well.

Tractive integrates with factory EDC. Or you can add on their standalone ACE controller which gives you even more programmability and semi-active suspension capability. It's really next gen stuff. It's a lot like the active spool valve in the new Ferrari Purosangue that people were raving about recently.

+1 on tractive. Probably the most advanced version of electronically adjustable shock that I've seen commercially available. No personal experience with the ride though.

FWIW,

Tracktive Touring EDC coilover spring rates:

Front 48 N/mm and rear 120 N/mm

Front 275lb/in and rear 685 lb/in

Fairly soft compared to what's out there but it is very close to flat ride with 0.97.

IamFODI you reading this?
