BMW 6 Series E64 (2004-2010)

Designed and manufactured by Clevite to BE Bearing specifications.

These bearings replace the factory BMW rod bearings. The original BMW bearings have too little clearance, which leads to premature bearing wear and can cause early engine failure.  Furthermore, the factory BMW bearings are made from tin-aluminum which are 5-times harder than a softer lead-copper bearing design. A softer bearing is better for your engine and more tolerant of foreign particles suspended in your oil.

These BE Bearings feature a state-of-the-art Clevite Tri-Metal design with the Clevite Tri-Armor(tm) coating.

• Lead-copper design for greater durability and easy tracking with oil analysis like Blackstone (recommended).
• Designed with extra clearance to "fix" the BMW rod bearing design flaw.
• Designed for use with factory 10W60 weight oils.
• Tri-Armor coated for low conditions during cold start
• Ideal for start-stop vehicles
• Applicable for BMW engines S85B50
• Standard Clearance
• Sold as complete set (10-cylinders)

Fits the following BMWs:
2005-2010 E60 BMW M5
2005-2010 E63/64 BMW M6

Designed by BE Bearings, manufactured by ARP.  These custom made rod bolts are designed to be used on BMW factory connecting rods.  BE Bearings worked with ARP to come up with custom rod bolt torque specifications to ensure minimal rod big end bore distortion.  Their bolts have been measured and verified to guarantee minimal bore distortion, and stay within the ARP torque specification.
