BMW 5100 Series Coilover Kit - AST ACU-B1604S

Product Information

Suspension coilovers are a type of car suspension system that combines a coil spring and a shock absorber (damper) into a single, integrated unit. The name comes from “coil” (the spring) and “over” (meaning the shock is inside or over the spring). Coilovers are typically adjustable, allowing you to change ride height, stiffness, and sometimes damping settings, depending on the model.

Benefits of Coilovers:

• Adjustable ride height: Coilover suspension typically features a threaded adjustable spring platform, allowing adjustment of ride height for better handling, aesthetics, or clearance.
• Improved Handling and Stability: Coilovers usually offer better cornering performance and reduced body roll compared to stock suspension.
• Customizable Ride Comfort: Many coilovers allow you to tune stiffness and damping to balance comfort and performance.
• Better Weight Distribution: Some coilovers can be adjusted corner-by-corner to fine-tune handling balance.
• Enhanced Appearance: Lowering the car can improve the stance and overall look.
• Versatility for Different Driving Conditions: Ideal for street, track, or off-road setups depending on the coilover design.
