Lowering springs

Hi all. I just bought a new 23 m340i rwd. After break in, and able to drive it like I want to, I've noticed it has a bit more body roll than I'd like. I want it to handle better with less wallowing through corners. I was wondering if anyone has done lowering springs and or sway bars. I don't care about the aestetic aspect, just performance. I live in FL, so the roads surfaces are generally pretty good. How's ride quality? Does it rattle the fillings out of your head, or is it tolerable? Do they actually help handling? Thanks for the advice.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your first post and your M340! I know sometimes it can be a little difficult to navigate at first so here's some links to get you going in right direction - I hope these help

I've been running the Dinan Springs and bumpstops for over 2 years and couldn't be more pleased. Here's a write-up I did shortly after I had them installed and my opinion hasn't changed

There's also a lot of info to be found here in the suspension, chassis brakes section found here

Looking at their application guide, if your 330i is xdrive then you can reuse them on the m340i. The non-xdrive 330i has a different part number.
