M3 Shocks and Springs

Can we use the new M3 shocks and springs on our 135s? Not the electronic adjustable suspension but the regular one. I know our suspension is supposed to be the same as the 335i and I heard some of them are now using M3 parts.

I don't believe the M3 suspension will transfer over, I am pretty sure it uses different mounting designs that would not be a bolt on.

If you are going to spend the money on upgraded suspension, I would go with an aftermarket setup that will offer better performance for the price like an H&R Cup Kit.

Hum, they fit perfect in my car..... One can replace the rear dampener to M3 type but the bushing in the camber arm are the same as the 335i so ther not much return in doing this.
