Product Details
These BC Racing ER Series coilovers (True Rear) fit the 1994-1999 BMW 318i Convertible RWD. They put race-grade adjustability in reach of the serious track-day driver, with independent compression and rebound tuning at every corner. Every kit is extensively tested on the M3 True Rear chassis and refined until it balances ride quality with performance, the reason M3 True Rear coilovers from BC Racing are the best-selling adjustable kits in their segment worldwide.
ER Series kits run a linear twin-piston design in a mono-tube body, with compression and rebound on separate external adjusters. That lets you fine-tune chassis balance corner by corner, stiffer front for turn-in, softer rear for exit grip, whatever the session calls for. BC Racing takes pride in choosing spring rates and damper valving that balance comfort and performance, you never end up with the oversprung, harsh-riding kit some brands ship as their only option. Drivers who want to deviate from the factory setup can order Swift Springs, custom spring rates, and custom valving at checkout; BC will re-valve the dampers to match whatever you specify, a level of customization most brands reserve for their top-tier race kits.
BC Racing has been manufacturing adjustable coilovers since 2004 and is one of the most popular coilover brands in the automotive tuning industry for a reason: competitive pricing, deep customization, proven reliability, and a fully rebuildable damper design that lasts years instead of seasons. These M3 True Rear coilovers arrive tuned for the M3 True Rear chassis and ready to bolt in, no break-in period, no guessing at setup. Every kit ships with a 2-year manufacturer warranty, lifetime access to BC service parts (pistons, seals, shafts, no unit replacement required when it's time for a rebuild), and in-house tech support from both BC Racing and the Springrates team.
