Product Details

These AST Suspension lowering springs with rear lowering links fit the 2010-2017 BMW 5 Series 520/523/528/530/518d/520d Touring (F11) with rear air suspension. The front springs drop the car 40 mm, and the rear uses AST's adjustable lowering links on the air suspension to set a drop of 0 to 40 mm.

AST cold coils its springs on Wafios coiling machines, so the lower center of gravity keeps close to factory comfort. Each set carries a lifetime warranty against breaking.

Standard Features

  • Adjustable rear lowering links for the factory rear air suspension.
  • Progressive rates on most vehicles.
  • EDC Compatible (if applicable to vehicle)
  • Each spring is blocked and computer tested prior to shipping, which reduces any settling once installed on the vehicle.
  • Lifetime warranty on breaking.

Notes
  • Europe-market only, not sold in the US.
  • Only for cars with factory rear air suspension.
  • Not suitable for 4WD (four-wheel drive) cars.
  • On cars with factory lowered suspension, the stated drop is reduced by the factory lowering.
  • 1 mm of adjustment on a rear lowering link changes ride height by about 5 mm.
  • Minimum rear ride height is about 355 mm, measured from wheel center to wheel arch. Lower than that gives poor ride quality.
  • Lowering reduces the air in the suspension. Lowering too far can cause errors in the car's computer.
