How to make my E46 2.0 more comfort

[daniel212326]

I'm newbie here, anybody can give me advice for how to make my E46 2.0 more comfort, cause i'm change eibach sport spring, original suspension and 18 inch rim. Can anybody give an idea ?

if u want better comfort with your current specs the only way is to change your tyres to thicker series eg. 45 or 50 series rather than the current 40 series. Other than that, one of those upgrades have to go either the rims or the lowered springs.

The thinner the tires, naturally the less cushioning effect the tires can provide.

With regard to your suspension set up, lower normally means harder to some degree to prevent bottoming out and also for better handling.

The only way you can have comfort and still be low or have performance when you need it.. Hmmm airbag suspension!

put less air into your 40 series tyre..tht should comfort a bit.

but read the review of Feb 06 issue of Autocar, the 525i that comes with M-sport package rides very comfortable even with original bmw sport suspension and 18".

those are the newer BMW models which are factory designed for bigger rims so that comfort isn't sacrificed. The older models weren't designed for 18s.
