It's for a Daily Driver and I transport customers and colleagues at times, so the ride quality NEEDS to be maintained.
It's always a combination of parts to make the handling better, but in my brief experience with the M5 I noticed a definite improvement with just the CP sway bar upgrade. Then, a further improvement by going to the 275/30-20 front tire for corner turn in and feel through the corner. That is from the stock 19" tire, so if you have the 20s already, maybe not such a difference. Still have stock springs and bushings and the only slight negative from the sway bars is that on a road surface that has undulations that affect either side of the car, but not both, the car will rock side to side slightly more than before. Very minor, and I doubt your passengers would mind.
