Product Details
Whiteline built the Heavy Duty 16mm Rear Sway Bar for the 2011 BMW 335is 3 Series (E92/E93). Whiteline part number: BBR46. Position: rear. The kit contains 1 sway bar and 2 bushings.
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. A wheel alignment is not required. To go with it on the 335is 3 Series, see Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, Rear Subframe Mount Bushing, and Front and Rear Essential Vehicle Kit.
Features
- Lateral locks: Built-in lateral locks hold the bar in position side to side.
- Bar mounts: Mount bushings use an internally knurled bore and grease retention lips for lasting lubrication.
- Finish: The metal is powder coated, which resists corrosion and wear.
- Install guide: Whiteline packs an install guide with it.
- Roll control: Designed to cut body roll and sway through corners.
- Bushing material: The bushing material is polyurethane, a firmer choice than rubber.
