Description

The Riaction Performance RI-BM-008-LT Coilover Kit is designed for rear-wheel-drive, non-M BMW E46 3 Series models, providing adjustable ride height, increased suspension control and improved handling while retaining a street-oriented level of comfort. Riaction's monotube damper design combines durable carbon-steel shock bodies with precision-machined aluminium components for consistent performance and long-term serviceability.

Full-length ride-height adjustment allows the vehicle's stance to be changed while retaining usable damper travel, while 32 levels of damping adjustment provide control over ride firmness and handling response. The standard BM-008-LT kit uses matched 8K front and 8K rear SAE9254 cold-wound springs and is fully rebuildable through Riaction Performance Shocks.

Important Fitment & Installation Notes: Non-M and RWD applications only. Does not fit E46 M3 or XI/AWD models. Riaction manufactures the separate BM-028-LT specifically for E46 AWD models. Confirm chassis and drivetrain before ordering. Professional installation, final hardware torque checks and a complete wheel alignment are recommended after installation.
