I would not have bought them if I didn't get such a good deal, new they are well over $5k CDN, I paid a fraction of that, fortunately.
The car should be far more capable than a stock M2 at that point. Much more grip with R comps 255's square, proper damping, and better bushings than a stock m2. All of that combined with a corner balance, will be hard to beat, imo. M2 owners are already looking into CS coilovers, bushings, brakes as it is, so I'm not all that convinced it was worth it for me to pull the plug on this car and grab an M2 now that the hype is gone. Aside from track width, the geometry is very close between these cars, they all drive very well. I seriously contemplated stopping where I'm at and trading up earlier this year, but I think being "at home" in this car now, and my confidence at the track this summer (where I lapped several secs faster than an M4 cab and Stock M2), I'm gonna continue my journey with the car and be the underdog  |
That's great to hear! I love how there is so much ability to mod our cars to rival even its big brother. I was looking at both options you suggested and Ohlins is not TUV approved, not sure how critical that is? Also they only listed M2 coilovers. The KW DDC's would be a premium choice though.
Your car is beast already, will be even more so as you check through your future mods!
