Anyone in Houston running either 18" or Dinan coilovers?
Hello!
Started the search for my next daily (well, semi daily, got a few other cars to swap out if needed to keep life interesting!), drove a '18 DCT M2 in stock condition. Absolutely LOVED the car, except for the the way the car handled our absolutely sh**ty Houston roads. Test drive was around the Woodway/Voss area, lots of undulations in the road. The car behaved like it was on linear spring coilvers, ie; the whole car would move with the bumps and variations on the road, vs. the wheel travelling up/down. I have read that running 18" and/or Dinan Coilovers will help this quite a bit, but would love to possibly chat with or maybe even be taken for a ride in one if anyone is local in Houston? I'll bring something fun to give you a ride in to return the favor :-) let me know your thoughts! Thanks! Jakeg

A good used BMW for what your looking for is the M235i and the M240i. The 8 speed Automatic trans is the shit. Put a Trans flash from xHP stage 3 and you will think it's a DCT. I have owned both. And dude it's Kool. You will get a car with a SMOOTHER ride. And shift like a race car. |
