    CAB recommendation

    I am about to replace my CAB. I wanted to know what would be a nice upgrade. Keep in mind that i use my car as a daily driver and do not track/race. I am currently looking at these



    parts 70A or 75D

    any recommendations

    For a purely street car there's no real reason not to use the OE bushings. but if you want to use the AKG bushings go with the softer of the two, which I think is the 70A units.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

        i read that the OEM M3 bushings are only helpful at high speeds

          The increased caster from the offset helps with highspeed stability. They're rubber and solid so they'll last and aren't as harsh as urethane.

            it also helps at lower speeds like autox, because of the increased dynamic camber (your outside wheel gains camber as you turn sharper, because of caster).

              would you recommend the e30 m3 bushings over the AKG urethane for daily driving use?

                You can also use e36 m3 CAB's as well. They are solid rubber and a cheap upgrade over oem CAB's.

                  Solid rubber offset.

                    Only the '95 e36 m3 had offsets. I'd go with an offset either way because they are an upgrade for about the same price as stock. I have a set of AKG ones that I'm getting ready to install. The only thing about them is they don't have the little alignment arrow that the OE ones have.
