Öhlins Performance Damper Set for BMW E8x and E9x - Springs Required - Part No. BMS MI01

Unlock serious chassis control on your BMW 1 Series or 3 Series with this Öhlins performance damper package. Designed for the E81 E82 E87 E88 and E90 E91 E92 E93 platforms, these premium monotube shocks bring crisp steering feel, superb grip on uneven tarmac and a calmer, more planted ride on British roads. This is the springless kit - add your preferred springs to tailor the balance for fast road or track use.

We run these on our own builds and customer cars and the feedback is consistently outstanding. Expect less roll, better traction on corner exit, cleaner responses over bumps and a composed ride that remains genuinely usable every day. One easy-to-reach adjuster lets you fine tune firmness for the commute or a circuit session in seconds.
