Congrats. Wow, you are swapping to coilovers so soon. Thought you just had the Eibach. Not satisfied with them?

The Eibach spring is actually good especially considering it's not pricey. It improves the driving experience quite a lot but I'd say the ride comfort and control are still not optimized with the stock shock. I missed the experience I had with Bilstein on my previous C class.... This time I will try KW which I look forward to it.

cwong, I am like you. Always chasing the sport feeling of my last C. But then, this is an F10 and not a small C

Tiny bro,
Agreed. 20" is perfect for F10
But mine sometimes run HK-China, where there are some imperfected roads.
So, I stay at 19" to make more rubber,

True, F10 is a mid size or large size sedan. Handling-wise it will never be like the small sport sedans. I am coming from a completely stock E46 and I say my old car still wins on the handling aspect.

But then I'll have to say KWV3 definitely will improve quite a bit. However still never could match up the smaller sport sedans.

All 535 comes with same 17" rims as 528. 523 is different 17".

Agree! Still miss my ex 335i, so powerful and good handling! But I am ok to trade off some handling for a more roomy car for my family!
