295s on the rear. I heard you can fit 305s but things are very tight as they are and I have not rolled the lips.

Don't know if this ship has sailsd but I fitted the oem rear bar from the z3 coupe and replaced every rubber bush with oem except rear beam which are poly and the front control arm bushes which are z3m roadster. Adding new bilsteins and modern rubber gives lots and lots of grip with flat turn in on smooth roads. I don't track my z3 but I do pedal it hard when it's safe and the handling is great except for the usual rear step out over mid corner bumps which i dont know how to solve. Steering feel wise these little cars are lovely with modern rubber.

I am considering larger diameter sway bars on our Zed. I would use NEW stock bushings/etc... We recently installed H&R bars on our 2004 DINAN 330Cic and it greatly improved the car in the corners with no harshness added. If it works similar on the Zed it will be great!

Managed to get the lower arms and sway bar fitted today.
The Ford drop links fit really well.
They're really good. They look alot bigger than the stock drop link. Time will tell now if the quality is there.
