As the title said

Is an Engine Strut Brace worth it on a 335i w/sport package?

Saw one at the circle BMW site.

Anyone have any info? Or have one? I ran one in my 330Ci... and had one in my Maxima prior to the 330...

I don't have an answer, only another question: Did the strut brace make a noticeable difference on you other cars? I'm thinking about getting one for my e90.

thanks,

It made a differance on my Maxima more so then my 330. I read that the M3 Strut brace (which I bought after reading the forums years ago) did help, and I did feel maybe a little differance.

Just not sure on the e90.

Pretty Sure for 99% of us, the strut braces will do nothing more than look Cool.

That being the case I'd say a nice Billet or carbon Brace would look killer. along with a Carbon fiber engine cover, or Valve cover...

It's not for the look of it, if it's not fuctional, no need for it...

Doesn't the 335i already have a strut tower brace?
