Bilstein B16 PSS10 Street Comfort Coilover Kit – BMW E82 / E90 / E92

OVERVIEW

The engineers at Bilstein created the ultimate race-inspired street suspension. This version of the B16 PSS10 is tuned for a little more street comfort than the standard PSS10, which makes it a strong choice for cars that see far more daily driving than track action — with all of the adjustability and technology of the standard E82/E9X PSS10 kit.

The manually adjustable monotube gas dampers offer ten precise settings, from maximum comfort to aggressive sport, selected by the twist of a dial — each click adjusts both rebound and compression. The threaded damper bodies allow ride-height adjustment so you can set stance and handling balance exactly where you want them.

The kit is designed for the E82/E88 1 Series (128i, 135i and 135is) and rear-wheel-drive E90/E91/E92/E93 3 Series (325i, 328i, 330i, 335d, 335i and 335is).

TECH RESOURCES

Additional Parts Required

• Recommended tool: Bilstein spanner wrench set E4-XS1-Z001A00 (sold separately) for setting the threaded ride-height collars.
• A four-wheel alignment is mandatory after installation — changing ride height alters camber, caster and toe.
• Professional installation is strongly recommended. Spring compressors and BMW strut tooling are required, and the front strut assemblies are under spring load.
• Damping is set by hand at each corner — set front and rear to matching positions before road testing.
• Re-check ride height and re-torque the fasteners after the springs have settled, then re-align the car if the height is changed again later.

Notes

• xDrive (all-wheel-drive) models are not listed by Bilstein for this kit. Year coverage varies by body style within a chassis — confirm your exact model, drivetrain and factory suspension option with Speed Logic before ordering.
