►The F8X family of BMW vehicles is a supremely capable bunch. Powerful turbocharged engines provide limitless grunt wrapped in a distinctly BMW package. However, their suspension makes them more than just powerful cruisers. Specially designed bushings and unique geometry compared to their non-M counterparts give them the supercar handling that M cars are known for. With that comes problems and solutions meant exclusively for the F8X chassis. In this video, FCP Euro's BMW Expert, Gareth Foley, takes you through the F8X M3, M4, and M2 suspension, explaining where they go wrong, where they can improve, and what to expect during ownership.
