Q: Square vs staggered: which is better for handling and tire wear?
A square setup allows front-to-rear rotation, which usually improves tire life and keeps handling predictable. Staggered setups can increase rear grip but reduce rotation options and can change balance. Your goals and tire budget should drive the choice.

My 2024 performance already has coilovers and every camber, trailing and traction arm you can buy front and rear and the compression rod bearing but still wasn't happy with bodyroll, after I put these on the stiffest setting it helped a lot and still very smooth on the street nothing to crazy I'd...

Feels more planted and confidence inspiring except the clunking, as well as squeaking at times. Either way, it's a great addition to my 2025 M3P!

I installed these parts and I am very satisfied. The quality is great, the engines don't heat up anymore and with that magnet I make sure that there are no filings in the engines. A very good investment.

I just had these bad boys installed on my Model S Plaid. It is INSANE how much stopping power these brakes provide.

I've been using these coilovers for about two years now and I'm very happy with them. I use my car for daily driving and also at the track. The Sport Pro coilovers do a great job at both places since you can change the ride comfort to stiff or soft. Highly recommend it

I purchased a set of both Titanium and Black UP emblems. The emblems are well designed, looks great and perfect on the car. Highly recommended and will definitely purchase more soon.
