Question about M-Sport shocks on the E90

Paul427 · 06-30-2022, 10:56 AM

So recently I did some stupid things while driving and my rear shocks completely died. And I could just get used ones to be sure that everything will be the same. But maybe I could get new ones. I've looked at Bilstein B4 but I've heard that they are made for stock suspensions on the E90s and mine has M-Sports. Can someone tell me which ones should I get?

They have both normal suspension and M-sport suspension versions of the Bilstein B4 (rwd cars)

Assuming RWD:
Sport = M Sport = option 704.

You need Bilstein B4 Sports.

Bilstein recommends B8 for "M-Technik", a B4 version for "Standard" or a B4 version for "Sport".

Only early M sport E90s have different shocks and struts than sport chassis though.
