Product Details

The Bilstein B8 shocks are built for a 2012-2016 BMW ActiveHybrid 5 (F10) that is already lowered. Shorter bodies and firmer valving matched to aftermarket springs, so a dropped car rides properly instead of crashing.

Bilstein supplies suspension as original equipment to manufacturers around the world, and applies the same engineering here. It fits the factory mounting points exactly and is covered by a limited lifetime warranty.

Features

  • For use with lowering spring sets and production sport suspensions
  • Enhanced safety and performance with lowering spring change
  • Sporty feel while maintaining comfort
