BMW & Mini cars are renowned for their performance handling and driveability.
Stiffer & dialled in to reduce body roll and lower the centre of gravity. Lower ride height for aesthetics (reduces wheel arch gap).
We can source, supply and install top quality performance coil springs. Alternatively you can supply the kit for professional installation and set up.
Combination suspension packages of performance springs and sport shocks are also available. Options to suit all requirements and budgets.
Essential for crisp cornering. Shocks keep the tyres planted on the road. Failing or Leaking shocker absorbers affect handling and tyre wear.
Usage variables including road / track surface condition affect longevity of shock absorbers. With average road usage on average road conditions the shocks should last 60000 to 80000 miles.
We can source, supply and install top quality sport shock absorbers. Alternatively you can supply the kit for professional installation and set up. Combination suspension packages of performance springs and sport shocks are also available.
Coilover kits provide you with the ultimate ride and handling including height and dampening adjustability. There are different specifications available from milder road use appropriate kits through to hardcore track kits.

Camber setting in the alignment is a crucial aspect of the suspension but standard camber adjustment on BMW cars is frustratingly very limited.

Larger front and rear anti roll bars will give your car a faster turn-in and less bodyroll in corners. New bushings and links are generally included in the kits.

We can source, supply and install top quality replacement bushes and mounts; either heavier duty performance or OE / OEM original specification.
Alternatively you can supply the parts for professional installation and set up.
It's common for there to be some "chassis flex" when cornering or driving over bumps due to the force being applied on the strut towers allowing flex. Adding a brace between the strut towers reduces the flex and strengthens the chassis.
We can source, supply and install top quality performance strut braces. Alternatively you can supply the parts for professional installation & set up.
Many BMW models are prone to weak points in the chassis. Chassis reinforcement kits are designed to strengthen and reinforce the existing design.
We can source, supply and install top quality chassis reinforcement kits. Alternatively you can supply the kit for professional installation and set up.
