Bilstein 35-044017 OSF Sport Strut for BMW 3 Series E36

Transform the way your E36 drives with the Bilstein 35-044017 offside front unit. This uprated, gas-charged inverted strut brings sharper steering, flatter cornering and rock-solid stability while keeping standard ride height. It is the go-to fast road upgrade for drivers who want tighter body control and confidence without harshness.

We run these on our own cars and have installed them for many happy customers. The feedback is consistent - cleaner turn-in, reduced roll and far better composure on British B-roads. If your original damper is tired, the famous yellow Bilstein is the durable, German-engineered replacement that lifts your E36 to the next level.
