G20 BMS Strut Cross Braces?

https://burgertuning.com/products/bm...40i-and-m340ix

I came across these earlier today and was wondering if anyone has tried them out and if u think they would make any difference to the front end at all.I've seen the 2021 supra added a factory cross brace on the 3.0 supra and thought would it do much on a g20?

I had strut braces on my B9 A4 and they made a very noticeable difference. It was absolutely worth it there. I haven't found any in America for the 330i yet unfortunately. So no experience with the G20.

Thanks for the info . I have a 2019 330i Xdrive . The ones above are supposed to fit both the m340i and 330i. I might pick them up and give them a chance.

If you do, let us know how it goes. I just saw that it supposedly fits the 330i too. I'm interested in it now.

Also seems like similar strut tower braces are part of the 2021 Supra upgrades. May be worthwhile!

True. I just read/watched a few 2020 vs 2021/2.0 vs 3.0 Supra articles and videos and noticed the added strut braces.

I was also interested, but saw this... "Not for use with aftermarket intakes". I have the BMS intake, bummer.

If anyone else purchases and installs soon let me know what your opinion is after you've had the chance to drive with them installed.

Wondering if this will make a difference or if it's worth it

Can you share your impressions of the driving with the strut braces vs not having them? I am very interested in how this part improves the handling

I’m supposed to receive the DINAN ones this week.
I will install them and give my (honest) feedback.
