Modification/Refresh of E39 530i Touring SE to M-Sport Suspension
Posted: Sat Sep 21, 2024 11:57 am
Greetings to everyone,
I have been perusing this and other boards intermittently for weeks in search of a solid solution, however the information remains perplexing.
I own the aforementioned vehicle, which is equipped with coilovers at the front, adjustable drop links at the back (for the air bags), and 19-inch wheels. The appearance is commendable; but, the ride is very rigid and low. I want to get M-Sport suspension, preferably equal to OEM if it results in cost savings, along with 17" wheels. Desire arches positioned towards the upper edge of the tire. I am unable to use RealOEM since my vehicle is a SE, and I want sport suspension.
Could someone kindly provide guidance on the brand and model of the components required for a comprehensive front refresh? I will retain airbags (and adjustable drop links) in the back, or modify them if deemed necessary. Preferably, information about sway bars and purchasing options in the UK.
I have been experiencing a cyclical pattern and would much value any information.
Thank you!
