Bilstein B6 Nearside Front Damper for BMW Z4 E89 Roadster 2009-2016 — Part No. BILSTEIN-35-170631

Transform the way your BMW Z4 E89 turns in, grips and rides with this Bilstein B6 nearside front strut, part number BILSTEIN-35-170631. The B6 is the benchmark sport damper for drivers who want sharper response and rock-solid stability while keeping factory ride height and everyday comfort. We install these regularly and the feedback is consistent: tighter body control, calmer high-speed composure and real confidence on B-roads and motorways alike.

  • Improved steering precision, reduced roll and pitch, enhanced road holding on uneven surfaces
  • Built for daily driving, fast road and long-distance touring, even with frequent loads
  • German engineering quality with excellent durability and heat control
  • Great match for larger wheels and tyres without making the ride crashy
