Bilstein B8 Performance Plus Front Right Shock Absorber / Strut / Damper (OSF, RHS Driver Side) for BMW 3 Series Touring F31 Estate/Wagon 2012-2019 - Non-EDC / Non-Adaptive Passive - Monotube Gas - Shortened Sport for Lowering Springs

Bilstein B8 OSF Sport Shock for BMW 3 Series Touring F31 2012 to 2019

Give your BMW 3 Series Touring F31 a sharper, more planted feel with the Bilstein B8 offside front shock. This uprated right-hand front strut is a direct-fit replacement designed for cars running quality lowering springs. The short-stroke body and precision valving deliver crisp turn in, stronger mid-corner control and faster response, while keeping everyday ride comfort perfectly usable on British roads.

Built with Bilstein’s proven gas charged single-tube architecture, the B8 provides consistent damping and fade resistance mile after mile. It is suitable for models without electronic damper control, so non EDC and non adaptive suspension only. We run B8s on our own builds and our customers regularly report tighter steering feel, reduced roll and a more confidence-inspiring drive in all weathers.
