BC Racing BR Series Type RA Coilover Kit for BMW 1 Series F20/F20 LCI (2011-2019) - 3-Bolt Top Mount - Adjustable Ride Height & Damping - Fits 118i, 120d, 125i, M135i & M135i xDrive

Transform the way your F20 drives

Looking for a serious suspension upgrade for your BMW 1 Series without ruining daily comfort? This BC Racing BR Type RA 3-stud set gives you height adjustability and precise damping control in one proven package. It sharpens steering response, tightens body control and delivers the planted, confidence-inspiring feel enthusiasts want on British B-roads, motorway journeys and track evenings alike.

We run these on our own cars and customer builds and the feedback is consistently strong: smoother ride than expected, far better mid-corner stability and a clean, level stance. It is the ideal fast-road and occasional track solution for owners who want a proper handling upgrade that still behaves on rough UK tarmac.

Why this kit

• Height adjustable suspension for stance and performance tuning
• 30-click damping adjustment to fine-tune comfort and control
• Monotube damper design for consistent, fade-resistant performance
• Type RA top mounts with OE-style comfort to keep NVH in check
• Ride height set via the lower mount so spring preload can be kept correct
• Zinc-coated bodies and quality components designed to handle year-round UK weather
• On-car adjusters for quick tweaks between daily driving and track work
• Optional rear damping extenders available for easy access in the boot
