Product Details
This Whiteline Heavy Duty 16mm Rear Sway Bar fits the 2013 BMW 135is 1 Series. Placement: rear. The kit contains 1 sway bar and 2 bushings. Part number BBR46.
A sway bar is a torsion spring that links the left and right wheels. When the body leans, the bar twists and resists, which keeps the car flatter and spreads load more evenly across the tires. In general, a stiffer rear bar helps the tail rotate and reduces understeer. It is a fixed design with a single stiffness setting, which keeps it simple.
Installation is rated moderate, with about 1.5 hours of work listed. It does not require a wheel alignment. To go with it on the 135is 1 Series, see Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, and Rear Lower Trailing Arm Bushing.
Features
- Lateral locks: Lateral locks stop the bar sliding sideways under load.
- Roll control: Reduces body sway through turns.
- Finish: A powder coated finish resists corrosion and wear.
- Bushing material: Made of polyurethane, which resists deflection better than soft rubber.
- Self-lubricating: The bushing carries its own grease supply in internal reservoirs, so it keeps moving freely.
- Install guide: Whiteline packs an install guide with it.
