Product Details

With the Bilstein B16 kit the 1993-1998 BMW 318i adjusts in two directions: how low it sits, and how firmly it is damped. Set it soft for the road, wind it up for a session.

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

  • Quick and easy damping level adjustment
  • Threaded body allows lowering of approximately 30mm to 50mm
  • Tested by our engineers under motorsport conditions
