Bilstein B8 Performance Plus Front Right Shock Absorber/Damper - BMW 2 Series Coupe (F22/F87) xDrive - Non-EDC, M-Technology, for Lowering Springs

Bilstein B8 Front Offside Uprated Strut for BMW F22 F87 xDrive

Transform the front end of your BMW 2 Series coupe with this Bilstein B8 front right unit. Built for cars running a lowered ride height, this short-stroke sport strut delivers razor-sharp steering, flatter cornering and superb stability while keeping everyday comfort intact. Perfect for vehicles with the M Sport chassis and a passive suspension setup without electronic damping control, this is the go-to upgrade for F22 and F87 platform owners with AWD.

Why this B8 makes such a difference

• Shortened-body sport strut optimised for lowered springs for quicker response and superb road holding
• Monotube gas-pressure technology for consistent, fade-resistant control on fast B-roads and motorways
• Precision valving tailored to the chassis for confidence under braking, turn-in and rapid direction changes
• Engineered to OE-level quality for durability you can trust with daily use
• Designed for cars without adaptive damping electronic control, ideal for passive M Sport setups

Lowered spring compatible

The B8 is the sport short-stroke version, engineered to work in the ideal stroke range on lowered cars. That means better grip, more stability over bumps and mid-corner undulations, and a cleaner, more controlled ride compared with using standard-length dampers on lowering springs.
