Transform the way your BMW drives with a premium height-adjustable shock and spring package engineered for sharper handling, confident cornering and a tailored stance.

Real-world benefits for your 1 Series

Dial in a lower centre of gravity and enjoy crisper turn-in, reduced body roll and improved high-speed stability. Wind the rebound firmer for track days and spirited B-road blasts, or soften it for daily driving comfort. The camber-capable pillowball top mounts make it simple to add front-end grip and set tyre contact for fast road or alignment-focused builds.

Built to last, engineered to perform

Developed with KW damping technology, the monotube guide and advanced seal package reduce internal friction and protect against dirt and road grime. The result is dependable performance, smooth adjustability and long-term reliability in British weather.

Who is it for

Perfect for drivers seeking a serious BMW E82 or E88 handling upgrade, stance adjustment and geometry control without sacrificing everyday usability. Whether you want a street-friendly drop, a fast-road alignment, or track-ready camber, this solution delivers.
