Bilstein B8 Rear Shock Upgrade for BMW M3 E90 Saloon, non EDC

Give your E90 M3 sharper control, stronger rear-end traction and a confident fast-road feel with this Bilstein B8 rear shock unit. Purpose built for cars running lowering springs, this shortened-body damper preserves suspension travel, resists fade under hard use and delivers the crisp, connected response keen drivers expect.

• Application-specific valving tuned for the E90 M3 chassis for predictable, confidence-inspiring behaviour
• Built to premium standards for long-term reliability and precise performance
• Bolt-on fitment using factory mounts, no modification required
