By the way, M135i and M140i are considered "M-Performance" cars rather than true "M" cars. But they still have "M-Performance" suspension enhancements available and their factory suspension, I guess , is a M-Sport one (like the one I have with M-Sport package) but, of course, tuned rather than exactly the same.

If you insist on your intention at least for looks (M-Sport suspension is 10 mm lower than the basic one) be aware that M-Performance suspension is still another 10 mm lower than the M-Sport.

By the way, there have been some suspension discussions on this forum. Here are a few:

Thanks for the detailed response. I got myself a suspension from a M140i which is known to be LCI. I only paid 50€ for it and it‘s good as new since the previous owner switched to some other suspension. My poor friend who is an mechanic is going to try fitting this in my car in the next couple of days, maybe weeks. I am gonna give a little feedback as soon as it’s all done.
