OVERVIEW
The ST X coilover kit for the F10 5 Series and F06 6 Series Gran Coupe swaps the factory suspension for a height-adjustable coilover set, tightening up the stance of a large chassis while keeping fixed, road-biased damping.
ST is the value brand of KW Automotive. The ST X is the entry point in the coilover range: a fixed-damping, height-adjustable kit built on galvanized zinc-coated steel struts with a friction-optimized composite spring perch and stainless steel insert. Dampers are hand-assembled and quality-tested before they leave the factory.
