BMW Spring & Shock Packages (BMW Performance and More) for BMW 3 Series E36 (1992-1998)

These suspension packages consist of H&R Springs combined with Bilstein Sport shocks and struts. This combination works exceptionally well on street-driven cars when coil overs are not available or not desired. These springs and shocks will lower the ride height, firm up the suspension, decrease bodyroll, and provide better handling. There's almost no downside save for a slightly firmer ride.

A shock/spring package is a direct replacement for the existing shocks, struts, and springs in your car. Unlike coil overs, there are no adjustments to be made or complicated mechanisms to use and the parts do not require special bushings and mounts. Our suspension packages install with the same original mounts as your stock shocks and springs (new parts are generally recommended of course). For a simple, inexpensive, and hassle-free suspension upgrade, a shock/spring package is impossible to beat. Bilstein shocks and H&R springs each carry a limited lifetime warranty.

This E36 suspension package will transform the feel and character of the E36 with so little downside you will wonder why this wasn't the factory suspension to begin with. With H&R Sport Springs and Bilstein Sport shocks this package will give less bodyroll and better handling without being overly stiff and punishing. This is a GREAT suspension to replace your E36's tired original parts.

H&R Sport springs lower the ride height by 1.5" in front and 1.0" in the rear and stiffens the spring rate. Both combine to lower the car's center of gravity and reduce the amount of bodyroll in corners. The springs are progressive rate so their initial stiffness is actually very compliant and it becomes stiffer as the spring is compressed. This is great for street cars that see bumps and potholes where suspension compliance is key. Overall, they are about 25% stiffer than the stock original springs.

We use Bilstein Sport shocks as the dampers and they feature Bilstein's patented and innovative valving system. With this system, small bumps and impacts are absorbed as they should be. But the shocks stiffen for cornering and other suspension motions. It's the best of both worlds as the shock self-adjusts based on suspension motion. These fit with the stock strut and shock mounts, making for an easy and clean install.

Fitment note: on 1992 models BMW changed the front suspension design midway through the model year. You will need to confirm which suspension is on your 1992 model prior to ordering this suspension. All 1993 and later models use the same setup.

If your 318ti needs a little more pep in the corners, this is an excellent suspension package. H&R Sport springs and Bilstein Sport shocks for the 318ti will lower the ride height for an aggressive stance and stiffer springs will improve handling and balance in the corners. This suspension is a favorite among 318ti fans because the car corners better without a punishing ride. Perfect for daily-driven ti's that want to carry more speed through the corners.

H&R Sport springs lower the ride height by 1.4" in front and 1.0" in the rear and stiffens the spring rate. Both combine to lower the car's center of gravity and reduce the amount of bodyroll in corners. The springs are progressive rate so their initial stiffness is actually very compliant and it becomes stiffer as the spring is compressed. This is great for street cars that see bumps and potholes where suspension compliance is key. Overall, they are about 30% stiffer than the stock original springs.

We use Bilstein Sport shocks as the dampers and they feature Bilstein's patented and innovative valving system. With this system, small bumps and impacts are absorbed as they should be. But the shocks stiffen for cornering and other suspension motions. It's the best of both worlds as the shock self-adjusts based on suspension motion. These fit with the stock strut and shock mounts, making for an easy and clean install.

The E36 chassis combined with the four-cylinder motor can make for a very light and sprightly car. You can enhance that sporty zip with a more capable suspension. This H&R/Bilstein sport package will give better handling by reducing bodyroll and lowering the ride height. The trick to making the 318 go fast is momentum and this package will allow you to maintain and carry more speed through corners. You can make the most of the 318 package, even on daily driven cars.

As great as the E36 M3 stock suspension is, it still has compromises. From spring rate to ride height, the suspension was spec'd to be appealing to a wide range of BMW customers. In other words, they couldn't make it a track car for the road and still sell 50,000 of them. If you think your M3 could carry more speed through corners with less bodyroll, and look better with a lower stance, this suspension could be for you.

This suspension package for the E36 convertibles will lower the ride height for a better stance and give you better handling. The stock suspension can be very soft with a lot of bodyroll. If you want your 'vert to handle more like a sports car and less like a town car, this is the right suspension for you.

H&R Sport springs lower the ride height by 1.5" in front and 1.0" in the rear and stiffens the spring rate. Both combine to lower the car's center of gravity and reduce the amount of bodyroll in corners. The springs are progressive rate so their initial stiffness is actually very compliant and it becomes stiffer as the spring is compressed. This is great for street cars that see bumps and potholes where suspension compliance is key. Overall, they are about 25% stiffer than the stock original springs. Lowering amount will be slightly less on cars originally equipped with the factory sport suspension.

We use Bilstein Sport shocks as the dampers and they feature Bilstein's patented and innovative valving system. With this system, small bumps and impacts are absorbed as they should be. But the shocks stiffen for cornering and other suspension motions. It's the best of both worlds as the shock self-adjusts based on suspension motion.
