Bilstein B6 Uprated Rear Shock Absorber/Damper (Sport) - BMW 1M / 1 Series M Coupe (E82) - Non-EDC (No Adaptive) - Gas Pressure Monotube Strut - Fast Road OE-Height Replacement - Single

Bilstein B6 Uprated Rear Shock - BMW 1 Series M Coupe E82 - non EDC - Single Unit

Give your E82 1 Series M Coupe the rear-end control it deserves with this Bilstein B6 uprated rear shock. Designed as an OE-plus replacement, this gas pressure monotube rear strut sharpens response, boosts grip on uneven B-roads and tightens body control while keeping factory ride height and comfort. If you are chasing a direct bolt-on rear suspension upgrade for the 1M that works with standard springs and does not require coding, this B6 unit is the go-to choice for fast road confidence and everyday durability.

We have fitted plenty of B6 kits to customer 1M cars and the feedback is consistently positive. Expect crisper turn-in, less float, reduced squat under acceleration and a calmer, more planted feel over rough surfaces. It is a simple swap for a tired rear shock that instantly restores precision without making the car harsh.
