Product details
OVERVIEW
The ST XA coilover kit for the E82 1 Series coupe lowers the car on a threaded, height-adjustable strut and adds rebound damping you can tune for street or track.
ST is the value brand of KW Automotive, and every ST coilover is built at KW in Germany on galvanized steel strut housings sealed against corrosion, with a continuous thread so ride height can be set with the kit installed. The ST XA adds KW twin-tube dampers with 18 clicks of rebound adjustment, set at the top of the piston rod, so the same kit can be run softer for the street or firmer for a track day.
