:: BMR Autowerkes :: ST Coilovers
Hey guys,
we're proud to offer ST Coilovers to the E9X crowd, these are quality German made coilovers available at a great price! ![]() Two models available: ST X - height adjustable only RRP $1,429 ST XA - height and damper adjustable RRP $1,719 As some of you may/may not know, these coilovers are actually made by KW in Germany so they are v similar to a KW V1/V2 coilover. The only difference being the use of galvanised steel as opposed to stainless steel. They re-use your original top hats so they won't knock or make noise like other coilovers. Plenty of stock available overseas, most orders will ship in 8-10days. German quality. Affordable price! As a forum special use coupon code "bimmerpost22" on checkout to receive an exclusive online only discount ![]() Any Qs let me know ![]() |

FWIW galvanised steel is more than enough 'protection' for most Australian climates, the inox stainless steel construction of the premium KW's is mainly for european conditions (snow/salt roads)

I just want to lower a bit further the front, with the m-sport suspension, there is still a very large gap between the fender and the tyres. I saw people having a narrower gap.
I think lowering a further 2cm from m-sport suspension is ok? Also, I want to have even ride height, currently having rear right lower than left. ![]() |

The front can be lowered ~30mm more The rear can be lowered ~20mm more. I am expecting the front to settle just a little bit more, perhaps 5mm. Drove it back (on Parramatta rd) from getting the wheel alignment, as these are the XAs with adjustable damping, on the middle setting the ride is only just a tad firmer than Msport, initial impressions are v impressive ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Looks good!
Does this car lowered by 20mm from M sport suspension? Any spacers on these rims? 5mm? 10mm? I think it looks even better with spacers. For pre set damper ST-X, how's the ride compared to M sport? |

Always on sale for you Alan

No spacers - just fatter Michelin PSS tyres The ST X will be a little bit firmer than M sport. As long as your bushings are ok (and 99% of the time they are) they can be re-used. |

With the member special, you can get it less than $1400 shipped.
I recall it is only $35 to ship to WA when I checked it few days ago. I am going to get one too, just need some extra time to raise the money for it. Lol Just hope that the coilover and the discount will still available. Having too much to buy recently not just for my car. |

Also checked that installation is around $550 here in WA.
Don't want to try installing it myself since it is a very important part of the car. I don't want to risk my life while I am driving at 100km. Better get it installed professionally. |
