Hey Guys,
Its come time for me to replace my front lower control arm bushings. Im looking to see what options I have. I have heard good things about Meyle HD and Powerflex . (currently running powerflex on my e36 m3). My question is Could i run a e46 m3 Power flex bushing on my zhp?
I came across a really good deal on online but I dont want to waste my money. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Stay away from Meyle HD.
If you want poly bushings, you have multiple options but the most popular ones are AKG or Powerflex.
If you want rubber bushings that are an upgrade over the stock ones, go with Z4M that provide more caster.
E46 M3 bushings will not work.

Stay away from meyle whatever you do. I have 15k on mine and they are already shot. Got a pair of z4m fcabs sitting in my garage waiting to be installed!

I can't offer advice on poly bushings, but I changed to Z4M FCABs a couple of months ago and love them.

No to Meyle yes to z4m. Just know the caster will be a tad out of spec.

"ZHP is a garbage option anyway- just some cosmetic upgrades with a different cam and diff to claw back some of the performance lost fitting those hideous and heavy wheels. Any 330 with a 3.46 diff will smoke a ZHP every time. The whole Mafia thing reeks of childish behavior." - an e46fanatic
