Product details
OVERVIEW
The ST XTA coilover kit for the E88 1 Series convertible gives you height adjustment, 16-click rebound damping and camber-adjustable top mounts on the heavier drop-top chassis.
ST is the value brand of KW Automotive, and every ST coilover is built by hand at KW in Fichtenberg, Germany. The XTA sits at the top of the ST coilover range: height adjustable, with 16 distinct clicks of rebound damping adjustment and aluminum unibal top mounts that also allow camber adjustment. The struts are galvanized zinc-coated steel and the spring perch is a composite polyamide item with a stainless steel insert. The kit ships preset to ST's factory-recommended damper settings.
