KW Variant One inox line coilover suspension for BMW Z3M 1998 onwards

Give your Z3M the stance and precision it deserves with KW’s Variant One inox line coilover suspension. This height adjustable system is engineered specifically for the BMW M Coupe E36/8 and M Roadster E36/7, delivering confident turn in, reduced body movement and a composed ride on British roads. Expect a purposeful drop, sharper responses and the corrosion resistance that KW is known for.

Ride height range and axle load limits

• Front lowering: 25 to 50 mm
• Rear lowering: 25 to 50 mm
• Maximum permitted axle loads: Front 850 kg, Rear 890 kg

Why it transforms your Z3M

Variant One uses fixed damping that is factory matched to the Z3M platform, pairing model specific spring rates with KW’s damper tuning for a fast road balance. The stainless steel strut bodies resist corrosion, and the dirt resisting trapezoid thread with a robust composite perch keeps height changes smooth and precise season after season. It is a complete, road focused performance suspension that tightens body control while preserving everyday comfort.

The rear axle is adjusted the same way unless the vehicle uses a separate spring and damper, in which case the supplied rear adjuster sits above or below the spring as required.
