Overview

Bilstein B8 Performance Plus (Sport) front left strut for Z3 M Coupe/ M Roadster. Bilstein B8 Performance Plus shocks (formerly known as Sport shocks) are designed specifically for lowered springs and high-performance driving. While HD shocks are engineered to work with the stock springs, Sport shocks are to be used with shorter springs, such as from Eibach or H&R. The B8 shocks are what Bilstein uses with their B12 shock & spring packages. B8 Sport shocks are shorter to better match the new ride of height of the lowered springs and inverted (upside down) to reduce unsprung weight at the hub. The shocks are valved to be stiffer than original to better control spring and body motions. Bilstein uses Digressive Valving to give a firm and controlled ride on slow shock movements but be softer and more compliant on bumps and rough pavement (fast shock speeds). Optimized for vehicles with aftermarket lowering springs, featuring monotube gas-pressure technology for consistent, fade-free damping, application-specific valving for better traction and steering feedback, OE+ fitment, and engineered for performance without sacrificing long-term durability. Benefits include enhanced cornering control and reduced body roll, a lower, more aggressive stance without compromising ride quality, and keeping your upgraded suspension responsive and composed. Ideal for sport-tuned vehicles and performance enthusiasts.
