Product Details

BC Racing RM Series Coilovers for the 2013-2015 BMW X1 (E84) are purpose-built for McPherson-strut cars that see serious track time, with an inverted mono-tube damper engineered to outlast a hard season of lateral loads. Every kit is extensively tested on the E84 chassis and refined until it balances ride quality with performance — the reason X1 coilovers from BC Racing are the best-selling adjustable kits in their segment worldwide.

The RM Series inverts the mono-tube damper on strut-equipped chassis, putting the heavy internals where the lateral loads are worst. A wider piston shaft than conventional uprights means more consistent damping on long sessions and more fatigue life before rebuild. The off-the-shelf setup from BC Racing is deliberately balanced — spring rates and valving chosen so the kit feels comfortable day-to-day without giving up performance when you push it. Drivers who want a different recipe can spec Swift Springs, custom spring rates, or fully custom valving at checkout; BC will tune the dampers to match, which is a depth of customization most brands only offer on their top-tier kits.

Since 2004, BC Racing has grown into one of the most trusted names in aftermarket coilovers — not by racing to the bottom on price, but by pairing that price with real build quality, deep customization options, and a damper design any suspension shop can rebuild instead of replacing. These X1 coilovers arrive tuned for the E84 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.
