BMW E30 coilovers from KW Suspensions - also available for M3 models!
In 1985, the BMW 325iX was the first production vehicle from the Bavarian car manufacturer to be equipped with all-wheel drive. Today, the BMW 3 Series is a popular classic car with a total output of 170 hp. We have the right suspension for this car in our range. Discover our subtle classic suspensions, which retain the car's special character.
Problems with the standard suspension
The BMW 3 Series E30 and its M3 variants score with their exceptional driving behaviour for their time. With its balanced suspension setup, the E30 offers a comfortable driving experience suitable for relaxed everyday driving. However, the now-outdated suspension technology is less compatible with modern tyres. Sporty, ambitious drivers may also find the standard suspension too soft. The setup, which is designed for comfort, quickly tends to understeer when cornering dynamically.
Function & quality from KW
With the KW V4 Racing you experience motorsport technology at the highest level in your BMW E30 (M3 models included). The ideal suspension for new best times on the racetrack. It enables high-precision adjustment to different track conditions and driving styles. Compared to the standard suspension, the modernised V4 Racing offers significantly increased cornering stability, reliable feedback, and maximum traction.
All available products for the BMW E30
Individual lowering
This coilover suspension offers you the maximum technically possible lowering - individually adapted to your vehicle model. Can also be changed at any time after installation.
Adjustable compression (Lowspeed)
Fine-tune the compression damping (low speed) even after installation. Vehicle handling and stability benefit from 12 clicks.
Adjustable compression (Highspeed)
Fine-tune the high-speed compression damping even after installation. Vehicle handling and stability benefit from up to 15 clicks.
Adjustable rebound (Lowspeed)
You'll feel the difference with every click! Here you can adjust the rebound (low speed) with a total of 16 clicks. This makes the riding characteristics either harder or more comfortable.
Unibal top mount
Depending on the vehicle type, the aluminum Unibal top mounts have a scalable camber setting and can be optionally adjusted in the caster. This allows the camber angle to be adjusted so that maximum tire contact area is achieved when cornering and handling becomes even more direct.
Additional technologies
BMW E30 lowering
If you fancy a stepless lowering for your E30, you won't miss out at KW. Depending on the vehicle model, an individually adjustable lowering of up to 80 mm on the front axle and 80 mm on the rear axle is possible. Don't worry - this is the maximum lowering. A more discreet lowering is also possible at any time.
Maintaining cult status
The BMW E30 is among the most popular young-timers in the tuning sector. A high-quality coilover suspension from KW would never distort this unique character. Instead, the suspension underlines the charm of the old 3 Series. It allows a harmonious driving characteristic and ensures greater safety on your next drive.
M3 with origins in the DTM
The M3 series of the BMW E30 initially served as a homologation model for the German Touring Car Championship (DTM). However, it quickly became apparent that demand was high enough to produce the model in series. As a result, the BMW E30 M3 was used both in racing and privately on the road.
Special models also benefit
The resulting special models M3 Europameister, BMW M3 Cecotto, M3 Evolution II, Sport Evolution, and the M3 Cabriolet can be equipped with KW products. The vehicles stand for motorsport history and outstanding engineering. With the individually adjustable KW coilovers, the character of these iconic classics can be preserved.
